   "Life is but a dream" seems simpler. I mean, just look at   
   the word 'but' right there in the middle of it! ;-)

   Entropy is mind becoming bored with its temporary   
   flightiness into a seeming somethingness it dreams from   
   the non-stuff stuff of its nothingness.   
      
   But not to worry! As a mirror remains unaffected by what it   
   reflects,  remains unaffected by its dreaming,   
   just like with its seeming nested instantiations of itself   
   which fancying calling themselves "us", amongst other   
   names... which, perhaps, is why "It" can't find itself   
   as an object despite authoring all seeming objects...?   
      
   The possibilities are endless because they're all always   
   made up dream-"stuff" aka mind.

   Oh, for the love of signature silliness....
