fragments of his memories or
just figments of his imagination
salacious episodes popping
like crackers all heavy and juicy
light and dark images dancing
in the shadows gone berserk
nothing had changed in his routines
but must dreams raucous and ravenous
keep appearing in the still of nights
he watched the clock ticking when
startled from his slumber his eyes blurry
what could he do to rid off the dilemma
he had not been thoughtless but still his
head kept spinning his thoughts numbed
not that young to be privileged with
erotic dreams he persisted to get answers
fragments of his memories or
just figments of his imagination
salacious episodes popping
like crackers all heavy and juicy
light and dark images dancing
in the shadows gone berserk
nothing had changed in his routines
but must dreams raucous and ravenous
keep appearing in the still of nights
he watched the clock ticking when
startled from his slumber his eyes blurry
theft of his sleeping hours would leave
him woozy but he remained uptight
he kept asking but answers eluded him
him woozy but he remained uptight
he kept asking but answers eluded him
what could he do to rid off the dilemma
he had not been thoughtless but still his
head kept spinning his thoughts numbed
not that young to be privileged with
erotic dreams he persisted to get answers
he would like to dream again tonight!

ReplyDelete~~ to dream, again and again. Cheers, Hank.
ReplyDeleteA fascinating evocation of dreamland! All the more so for the image of the sleeping cat. My cat was making little noises in her sleep only last night, and I wondered what she was dreaming.
ReplyDeleteAlways fun to observe a dreaming pet, and wonder how often they observe us as we dream!!
