When sheep start to graze 
And with God plays then will praise
No sheep ever strays.

Corkscrew through depths of
aquatic oblivion

Sunken into the sheets past noon,
The leaping sheep are her foes
And the cows that frolic the moon.

Sing me a lullaby darling
Carry me to sleep

Waiting for relief
Hum a happy melody

From one, to put it on to other sheep?

Well you read at your peril
This poet is feral
It’s all hoods and winks
When this black sheep inks
Her sword is a single-barrel

Sleep

sink into sleep
drop into deep
paddle in waves
of fluffed up sheep
glide through the dark
fade into dense
waves of muffled
quiet rest.

I live on a farm in the sky;
we milk all the pigs as they fly;
at harvest we reap
the eggs from the sheep, 
and shear woolly cows in a sty.

All we, like sheep, have gone astray; 
And turned everyone to his own way;
The Lord hath said the words obey
It is to him we kneel and pray!

Sleep, sleep

Embrace Sandman's slumber
Pull up your covers
