dreaming haiku<br />

What do they have in common with each other?<br />
Haiku and <strong>dreams</strong> are both produced by the creative mind: one during the<br />
day, the other at night.,<br />
But what makes them extremely similar is the fact that they are both based<br />
on images, despite that <strong>dreams</strong> are presented as a sequence of images, while<br />
usually those that make up haiku are only two (or occasionally three). Both<br />
show—they do not tell.<br />
Both haiku and <strong>dreams</strong> have a sense that is all the more engaging than the<br />
many possible renditions; and both can be defined as products that give voice<br />
and body to unexpected resources when their images are alchemically<br />
aligned with each other.<br />
Dreams, such as with haiku, can sometimes be perceived in reverse, with<br />
viewers coming to the exact opposite conclusion of what was intended.<br />
Adream, an accurate product that the mind generates during REM sleep, is<br />
the manifestation of multiple and condensed instances, emotions, and needs<br />
escaping from effective day-to-day reality.<br />
The day isfiltered, entangled in the comb of the unconscious, and undergoes<br />
condensation at night in a single solution that usuallysatisfies many senses<br />
and is also termed dream job.<br />
Similar to a mosaic, intuitions, desires, and missed actions are conjugated in<br />
the dream. Of course we talk about wishes thatthe dreamer aspires to,<br />
sometimes hindered by external or internal contingencies, also ignored in the<br />
dream yet to come to conscience.<br />
