Golden Goose

Thoughts are laying eggs
Ideas about to hatch
Got throbbing a headache
Hands sucess to catch...

My mind is an illegitimate child 
I brood so many children
They carry a dangerous mind
My feet about to scratch...

A hole in the ground
Future goals to next
Counted before they hatch
Here my failures to nest...

In my sleep they light a match
Turn my dreams into ashes
They burn as I helplessly watch
All my unfulfilled wishes...
