exocerebral: a reoccurring dream

i saw
the mountain again
in my dream
in some desert that i've never been to

surrounded
by dark clouds
they always look heavy with rain

i've never seen its peak

and it doesn't always look the same
sometimes a spire shape
sometimes broad like baldy
but it always feels the same

i can feel it when I look at it

i don't feel anything in particular
only that i feel it
like somebodies presence

sometimes i'm on the mountain
on some narrow roadway
and snowfall all around me

other times
i'm observing it from a distance

once from some winding
desert roadway
i saw it
and then i noticed that there was something about the cacti and yuccas around me that didn't look right
they looked almost plastic

sometimes there is only
a reference to the mountain
or that i happen to think about it
