creature, vile at heart and adept at fooling

It was evening. I went to my assigned
room.
I don't remember if I had left the door un-
locked or opened
it when someone knocked; but there he was, standing in the
door-

out the light.
Then a crack
appeared
in the ceiling,
widening
until
I floated up and in-
to my bed.
The Old
Ones knew that The People had come to the
Blue World
after a long struggle.
What they forgot
was that dreams and visions
show a reality
that is as strong and
certain as the greatest tree
or the highest mountain.
