Doppler Vision, A Compounded Riddle

Dreams, do we imagine!?
or imagined for us?~ not really ours
man’s daily/nightly flighty escapes – 

perhaps mystically inspired? Projections of a
superior curtain-wizard: His/its contrived illusions,

erudite brothers propose, the mind 
a carnival trickster -- a phenomenal liar: such illumination
just mental, painted flame, no spark of true spiritual fire,

myself least fond of, the notion before the thinker...
the drink making thirsty the drinker -- 
like the egg and the chicken, the shell or the cluck 
prayer answered or declined 
and not a smidgen of exciting, wagering blind-luck --
