I dreamt one night


I dreamt one night
that the universe was full of worlds
that humanity could inhabit
and the people there had
enough minerals in their bones
to outstrip all the mines of earth.

I dreamt that night
that all the people were kind
they built a great industrial plant
somewhere in time
that all their bones could be mined
clean and efficiently
… for a little fee.
