Seeing Beyond the White Cactus Light

In the dream
coyote appears on a flat rock ledge
howling a warning.
My eyes veer left
to a huge prickly pear cactus
showering the scene with sparks
and strands and rays
of whiteness.

Blinding.

Coyote says
if you can see beyond
the white cactus light
and not go blind
you will see
nothing less
than the entire world.
