Untethered my mooring lines.
Set sail on placid glass seas.
Full moon shine silver stream.
I don't see the edge of the world.
I lay sleeping and dreaming.
Dream catchers catch my dreams.
Who is going to catch me.
I ran away
I set sail
Sailing away on the ship of fools.
I jumped the ship of conventional thinking.
I have vision
I have dreams.
So I will sail on the ship of fools.
a ship of dreams.

My last line reads "a ship of dreams" Do you think I should keep it dreams? Or change it to " a ship of dreamers."?

Very thought provoking piece. I think ' a ship of dreamers' would give this a bit more power. But as you have written it, this is still excellent.
Thanks so much for your enry
