The Indian Dreamcatcher

We live in a world where magic is alive We live with incantation and the surreal We live with the charmed and the fay In a world of magic where enchantment swells In a world where monitoring spirits roam unnerved Unhindered wrecking havoc emptying laymen's joy The Indian dream catcher a thing of beauty The dream catcher a thing of magic and marvel Is reputed for keeping away the evil sorcerers eye With the dream catcher we can dream fast in peace The war fought in the shadows requires totems To ward off evil spirits and evil inclinations To keep away unwanted soul trapping and journeying Like a Christian says his prayers in a puritan society The dreamcatcher lets us dream in a controlled spectrum In a world where sorcery and incantation still lives The carefully woven dream catcher kips evil at bay The dogs bark and the owl screeches in the night Ghouls and specters are trapped in a phantom zone The lone panther stalks the darkness of the night As a goat tied outside the pen bleats in right alarm Satiated with the offering the other goats are safe As the dream catcher kips swaying in the winds of time A Sherman enters into a trance communing with the spirits
