And with God plays then will praise
No sheep ever strays.

Corkscrew through depths of
aquatic oblivion
whirls of confusion.
Numbered sheep blaat in cyclones
and wake my unconcious mind.

They caused what was to be murder
Of Son of God our sheep herder.

Lucid dream machine
Still counting electric sheep
Android who can't sleep

The white unicorn
Seeks out the virgin maiden
who's the replicant?

The Sheep

I was just like little bow peep
Who kept trying to count sheep
I tried to close my eyes
Then got a big surprise
Counting sheep had put me to sleep

Black Sheep

Ba ba black sheep,
Go to sleep,
I’ll guard your feet,
From those guilty parties who underestimate all,
Pow pow,
You are safe for now black sheep.

Through enumeration of sheep.
Not those in his head,
But roaming instead,
He’d census the sheep in his keep.

Was disturbed by Donald Trump's thunder
It seems that a tweet
Incited a bleat
But who can blame Ewe for the blunder?

having very badly a sleepy yearning,
like little Bo Peep,

Wicked Black Sheep

wicked littile black sheep!
have you chosen your own way?
did you clime a mountain
like a snake upon a tree?
and did you sit upon the lords throne
while he was fast asleep?

You found a way to dismiss us, didn't you
Thought "we the people" really had no clue
The laws that congress passes
Apply only to the masses
May November find you feeling blue

and when wet, us the wearer complains,
for our pullovers shrink,
and so this made me think,
why don't sheep ever shrink when it rains?

They are singing songs
but we try to sing along

The ram loves sheep for their  appearance,
The wolf love sheep for their inner content.
So ram's love worse, without  soul connect.
Wolf love toward the sheep is such sincere!

Young Theodore loved nothing more than sleep
Never once had he ever counted sheep
  But when he hit puberty
  He got excited, you see
Fell for a stripper named 'Little-Bo-Peep'
