Cotton Wool

Countless childhood days and years
Spent with cotton wool in my ears
I courted fuzziness of purpose 
And chased skies under the surface 
of fraternal planet-changing dreams
East winds curved those soft streams 
Into avenues of clear-cut crystal paths
Nearing each curve, I wondered if it lasts 
Sometimes the wind carried cotton wool
away from me and my heart felt full
Sometimes I wondered though if the east wind 
Would leave me alone on these curves, blind
