Lucid

I had a lucid dream. 
And got caught. 
Horrible. 
You go to sleep thinking. 
The thinking collapses like lines on a road. 
Collapses like eternity. 
I had a lucid dream. 
If you die in that dream, you’ll know. 
Feels like a factory place. 
Or my bedroom or mumbling places. 
It caught onto me. 
Thinking. 
You don’t plan it out that way. 
The way they scramble. 
I had a lucid dream. 
Died again, remembered how I died last week. 
The buzzing, and whirling are seen all around. 
Turned me into zombie bones. 
At the end of the graveyard, I saw it all. 
I had a lucid dream. 
Knew all the flavors of dying. 
Woke up too easily.
