(1970's)
Here, darkness covers my eyes
A soft quilt covers my thighs
So sleep uncovers my dreams
And nothing is quite what it seems
A kiss turns into a shout
The sound turns into a pain
Moods alter... colors washout
Things change faces I can't explain
A place I know seems to be true
Somewhere I've been... somehow new
I shrink, fly, sink, and then grow
In and out of the rabbit hole
I wake in a foggy maze
Tell of my dreams within dreams
Wake once more... tell again... dazed...
Of this Chinese dream boxes theme
Eyes open from world concrete
Tell of telling dreams asleep
Ranting like a lunatic
About these dream-waves concentric
I loose solid thought, to freak
Falling through scene after scene
Lost in the mirrors of sleep
I think... It's a dream, just a dream
Is dream-world real... as it seems?
Can pausing here be the dream?
Here and dream... husband and wife
The shadow of dream is this life?
