Just a Dream

I am running fast Yet my feet move not! I am sweating My clothes are crisp dry! I am weeping But laughter rings in my ears! The pain is sweet The rough road Makes an interesting ride... When will a beautiful dumpsite House a ragged king? When will the dirty pearl Mock the red hot iron? When... When... When... Will silent noise greet me? When... Will peaceful rift run near us? Where... Shall the good harlot Put the spirit filled foetus? How... Are we paying for our Holy crimes? Why... Do the bestial beauties Not acknowledge The sad happiness on the faces Of the peaceful uglies? Answerable questions Questionable answers... All rolling To nowhere In my heavily light head... But then I woke up... It was just a dream....
