"The Sleepless Dreamer", 10.14.2012
while all the sheep are sleeping, the dreamers stay awake;
as the herd is worked by the game dreamers came to play.
the dreamers go from a knight at night, to a daze by day;
swim then sink, they wait to love as sleepers wade in hate.
as the sleepers keep on sleeping, chained in Plato’s cave;
dreamers keep on dreaming cuz it’s only too late to wait.
from white to black: in great dismay, light is made to fade;
but dreamers find that silverline within the shades of gray.
