Poem
Everything was fine My bed sheets felt cool and divine And my mind wandered The room began to roll Until the walls fell away I wasn't startled Until I heard the clash of thunder And lightning flashed before my eyes My bed was a lonely vessel In a raging sea I held on tight Riding the waves And I swore I saw Poseidon Selling lobster fixin's to dancing hermit crabs But I just held on tight Feeling bile rise up my throat Yet I never threw up And the angry clouds calmed down After being tickled by a giant feather Wielded by mice wearing sunglasses Everything seemed to slow The wind caressed my face And my bed drifted on the ocean surface But if I were to close my eyes I would fall, fall, fall Into the depths of darkness The depths of my mind But for once I just wanted to drift On the lonely sea Surrounded by mobster whales Shooting off insults at my dirty clothes But eventually they were left behind And the bed was trapped at a beach That beach was my life I felt the grains of sand between my toes But I sank, sank, sank Everything slowly turned black Until the walls rose up And my mind wandered My bed sheets felt cool and divine Everything was fine
