Sleep Soup
Does the soup like as do i ?
Sleep with 1 eye open ?
Whilst the other eye sleeps soundly
closed wishing for a dream or lullaby to whimper or tickle any of it's scenes
So when i wake up have if nothing else
at least gained something freshly squeezed from my subconscious to hopefully write about
As in my dreams i am happy to play front and centre
the hero and the lead the deliverer of the killer line
the ladies man the captain of the sinking ship
the president or general a man amongst men
Who once upon waking up in the morning is the embodiment of blending into the shadows
and goes about his daily business day dreaming
he is not the actual owner of a car with cheesy bumper stickers on the back
