I have a dream!

Well, Emily Dickinson anticipated the embedded nuance of this online public forum thread within the privacy of her home In Amherst,
Massachusetts, more than one hundred years ago when she quietly wrote the following minimal word content five line poem:

To make a prairie it takes a clover and one bee,
One clover, and a bee.
And revery.
The revery alone will do,
If bees are few.

Emily Dickinson (1830-1886)

ok, well, here goes - BUT YOU OWE ME THOSE TWO COOKIES! - i dreamt that I moved black first with 1. . . ... . N-g4 (which is obviously not possible on so many levels, so you can see why it's too embarrassing to tell . .. . except for the two cookies . .. .so i'll just have to live with it)

Okay, so in your dream black moves first with N-g4. That's not so bad, because with dreams it's not uncommon for something to happen before it can happen. So the really important question here is... what were you wearing?

Well, uh... it's definitely a conundrum for me, because I didn't realize I had actually asked you that question. I thought it was only a dream.

That can't possibly be Dickinson - it doesn't scan to "The Yellow Rose of Texas".

You're entitled to your opinion; if you're in doubt, Google it.

SB, there's no mother's son on this online public forum who has even a glimpse of this lady who is as private here as Emily Dickinson was at her home in Amherst, Massachusetts; if not more so. No one. Please refrain from patronizing coquette with glib compliments as a matter of courtesy. Thanks.
