"Tales of Mystery and Imagination
Edgar Allan Poe" (Narration Orson Welles)
For my own part, I have never had a thought
Which I could not set down in words
With even more distinctness that which I conceived it.
There is however a class of fancies of exquisite delicacy
Which are not thoughts and to which as yet
I have found it absolutely impossible to adapt to language.
These fancies arise in the soul,
Alas how rarely, only at epochs
Of most intense tranquillity
When the bodily and mental health are in perfection.
And those mere points of time
When the confines of the waking world
Blend with the world of dreams.
And so I captured this fancy
Where all that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.

Sure, Poe was into opiates, but, even without drugs, Poe understood the thin veil that separates dreams and reality. I believe that dreams are signals from another dimension (that some might call Heaven). Dreams could also be viewed as bits of unfinished business regarding the concious world. Love this video and music -- brilliant concepts!

Is a good way to describe living with a seizure disorder. similar to poems me & others write about near death or auras or out of body experiences.being awake & dreaming or seeing yourself as another person. is a fine line of reality & the edge.the separation of mind & body ,or seeing ,feeling it disconnected can be described such as this. or religious,satanic,my DREAM WITHIN A DREAM, IS my reality,comes & goes with power at it's own will. If I wake up is it reality? it's near. Rick Wichita ks.
