Sand
How Hitler knew
The fate of all
Only our teeth
Will remain
As sand by the sea
On this death world
For the Sandman
To make the rest
Dream of life
While they sleep....

Insomnia
Can't sleep
Count sheep
So weary
Eyes bleary
Relax
Sandman sacked
Get up
Make tea
Drink three
Dear me
Glance at clock
Get a shock
Sunrise
Closed eyes...

Whispers the Sandman
Whispers the sandman
sleep is nigh
Tuck away your day
one last kiss, then bye
Dim the lights
breathe a deep sigh
Now let me sing you
a soft lullaby...

Sandman
Sandy is why
you need
to take heed
and move your guise
a lining
is in the sky
silver is the color
and the money is fly
.
honey…
it’s in the love
that I’m writing
.
to ‘you’
.
a storm
is coming
it's true....

Ode
Sleepless
sandman missed his house
the night he was most needed
consumed by such grief
his wife, a cancer victim,
had lost her battle that morn

Spiritual magic
Dancing lightly
Dream State Ballroom
Formally formal
Gliding gracefully
Waltzing and bowing
Eyes flutter
Not quite closed
Slipping into abyss
Sandman magic
Whistling softly
To not disturb dreamer...

The Sandman's Behind
Sleep
I need
Yet evades
My night time bed
I'm too hot, too cold
Too much stress to rest mind
Lullaby sings to the moon
I count sheep but would rather sleep
Pray, maybe a nap later today
The sandman is always running behind...

Hypnagogic
My restless thoughts at last stop pestering me.
No consciousness have I when first I’m sleeping.
I long to be submerged in dreams’ deep waters.
Oh, Sandman, guide me past your sandy shoreline
to drift inside the sea of sweetest slumber....

East Coast Mlb
one hundred sixty two games
knowing all the players names
follow scores best we can
west coast games bring sandman
we'll watch the standings
keep track of innings
after all-star game it ignites a flame
winners will win and losers fall to shame...

Couplet
'neath the Willow
Let me write a couple lines
before I go to sleep
I promise not to burden you
nor to make you cry or weep
Lay your face down on the pillow
on the shoreline 'neath the willow
May you the sandman sprinkle
with dreams of stars that twinkle...

Half Lotus
What a waste.
This park,
This urinal,
This white stain.
And I am undone.
As always, repeating
Myself without a
White flag in site.
Consequences bequeth
Me and I wish
I could pay the
Sandman.
But not quickly,
no.
A Buddhist,
A mantra,
A sin....

Good Night Poets
Mr Sandman is calling my name
Blew slumber powder on my brain
What lies ahead for me in sleep
Hoping for peace and happy dreams
Good night poets one and all
Hope you dream big and tall
Or if your time to be awake is now
Hope your hearts desire is found...

And Now To Sleep
And now to sleep
Stars sparkle and gleam
The world's quiet; nary a peep
My pillow is soft, ready for dreams
Stop swirling, stray thoughts
No more reflections to ponder
By the sandman I'm caught
Open now, portal to wonder
~ Pleasant dreams, Soupers! ~...

SANDMAN
Sandman, sandman
Hold me tight
Help me go to
Sleep tonight
Saying zee, zee
Zee, zee
Zee, zee
Let me go to
Sleep dream free
Sandman, sandman
It’s alright
Help me go to
Sleep tonight
I’m fright, fright
Fright, fright
Fright, fright
Make sure you
Cut out the light
