| Seven Dreams | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| Once in bed, I fall to a sleep O'ertaken by hazy spectral dreams Vision first: adventure's head To kill creatures not alive nor dead A cowboy gunslinger, pirate shipyard Dreams not fit for the faint of heart Second story, dark and gory In a tavern to pour our my worries Waterlogged with wine and rum Till asleep I fall, this dream is done Fantasy third, a centaur am I Searching Snow White, where ere she lie Transition to a homecoming kiss How sweet return from absence is! Now to fourth, of palm trees and sex Vigorous lovemaking without a rest A familiar face I can't seem to place Under the nightgown I sensually raise But fifth is torn with beds of whores A catatonic craze and craving more Hungering for perfume, and lipstick fucks Fondling my way to fake orgasm luck Sixth dream, and I'm not what I seem A cheddar mouse or a waving daisy? Ride on the back of a swordtail fish Becoming a sea, in a sunfast wish Seventh, my lazy bones feel like lead And then I lie down to my deathbed Now carnage for vultures, but seven dreams past I've corkscrewed to fall, spinning fast And I die to awake, awake from sleep Recalling not one of my seven dreams |
