[ Sometime A Dream ]
[ Is Not What It Seems ]
[ Could It Be About A Bunch Of Lies ]
[ Coming @ You While Wearing A Disguise ]
[ A Sunny Day Could Switch To A Big Dark Cloud ]
[ Then Your Quiet, Serene Dream, Would Become Really Loud ]
[ You Were Not Prepared For This ]
[ There Was No Such Word Like (STORM) On Your Nightly Dream
List ]
[ This Is Nothing On The Information Form ]
[ For Pushing The Letter (C) ]
[ To Make It The Norm ]
[ Letter (C) Was Always Calm ]
[ It Never Gave You An Ice Cold Palm ]
[ Why Do The Black Clouds Follow You, Coming Out @ The
Worst Moments ]
[ When You Are So Spent ]
[ After A Day Of Searching For True Solace ]
[ All You Do Is Get Yourself Into Another Mess ]
[ In Your Dream You Were Looking For True Solace, But Got
Interrupted ]
[ The Good Dream Never Continued ]

(1119)▪︎[ Nightmares Come & Go … 9•3•2019 ]
[ The Nightmares Come & Go ]
[ It’s So Hard ]
[ When They Go By Slow ]
[ Sometimes The Ones From The Past ]
[ Last & Last & Last ]
[ Those Are The Ones That You Wish Went By Fast ]
[ What Do You Hear? ]
[ Are The Voices Far Away? ]
[ Or Are They Near? ]
[ When You Open Your Eyes, What Do You See? ]
[ Do You See Yourself? ]
[ Or Do You See Me? ]
[ Or Do You See Nothing @ All? ]
[ Are There Pictures On The Wall? ]
[ Are They Bare & Painted White? ]
[ To See Everything ]
[ Must You Turn On The Light? ]
[ Can You Hear What You’ve Seen? ]
[ Do The Voices Sound Mean? ]
[ Was It An Adult Voice Or A Teen? ]
[ Did You Trust It Sight Unseen? ]
[ Why Would You Put So Much Trust In What You Heard? ]
[ Was It The Sweet Sound Of A Bird? ]
[ Did You Believe Every Word? ]
[ Or Every Sound That It Made ]
[ When It Comes To Gullible ]
[ You Take The Cake ]
[ As Far As Being Loveable ]
[ That Is Not A Good Trait ]

(961)▪︎[ Fade Or Trade … 11•13•2021 ]
[ Some Say (MEMORIES NEVER DIE) ]
[ While Others Say (YES, BUT THEY DO FADE) ]
[ Is One Of Those Sayings A Lie? ]
[ You Guess Both Of Them Could Be True ]
[ Depends If You Always Think The Sky Is Blue ]
[ That Person Must Be An Optimist ]
[ @ Least Thinking Positive Would Be On Their List ]
[ Would Those People Be Superstitious On Certain Things? ]
[ Are They Worried About What A Black Cat Brings? ]
[ As They Grow Older ]
[ Do They Throw More Salt Over Their Shoulder? ]
[ You Never Could Understand That ]
[ Why Do People Throw Salt Towards Their Back ]
[ Would They Ever Walk Under A Ladder? ]
[ Right Now ]
[ Or Even Later ]
[ There Are Some Memories In Your Head That You Would
Rather Forget ]
[ There Are Alot Of People That You Wished That You
Never Met ]
[ People Go In & Out Of Your Life In Some Way ]

[ Like (2) Ships Passing Each Other In The Night ]
[ Not Even Worthy Enough To Shine A Light ]
[ There Are Alot Of People That Would Wish That These Last
(2) Years Never Happened ]
[ A Bad Event Would Happen & Then … ]
[ Another Thing Will Be Right Behind It ]
[ When The Shit Hits The Fan ]

(721)▪︎[ There Was A Dream … 8•27•2021 ]
[ Dreams Are Wonderful Things ]
[ Filled With Jokers, Queens & Kings ]
[ One Night You Could Be A Top Notch Card Player ]
[ Then The Next Night You Could Be A Hay Bailer ]
[ Bucking 100lb Bales Of Hay On A Truck ]
[ Learning How To Earn An Honest Buck ]
[ You Could Almost Dream Of Anything ]
[ One Night Of Make Believe ]
[ Has You On The Stage Of AGT ]
[ Up There With A Mike In Hand ]
[ You Could Dance Around ]
[ Or Be Still In Front Of The Mike Stand ]
[ Maybe It Could Have You Dancing With The Jabbo Wakkies ]
[ As You Dance, You Find That You Are The Lead ]
[ Maybe You Dream One Night ]
[ That You Woke Up One Morning & Found That You Could
Write ]
[ Not Little Things Like (MARY HAD A LITTLE LAMB) ]
[ But Amazing Stories Where Some People Say (DAMN) ]
[ You Write Another & Then It Is @ Least (2) Every Day ]
[ Before That Day You Never Knew The Way ]
[ Of Expressing Yourself In A Positive Manner ]
[ Now It Is More Than The Friendly Banter ]
[ So Is This Still A Dream? ]
[ You Say (NO) As Things Seem ]
[ You Spend Hours & Hours Of Writing Down Your Thoughts ]
[ They Definitely Do Not Come From Robots ]
[ They Have Feeling, Vision & Depth ]
[ You Even Write Stories That Have Made Others Wept ]
[ Those Are The One’s That You Kept ]

[ Have You Ever Run Into An Immovable Object That You
Can’t Go Around? ]
[ There Is Not A Path To Be Found ]
[ Is This Object In Real Life Or Is It Solely In Your Head? ]
[ Is This Just A Problem In Some Of Your Dreams ]
[ That You Have, While Sleeping In Your Bed? ]
[ But It Is Now Consuming Your Thoughts ]
[ & Making You See Spots ]
[ Are The Spots Colorful Or Do They Just Come In Black &
White? ]
[ Do You Go Left? ]
[ Or Do You Go Right? ]
[ Which Way Is Best For Your Sight? ]
[ Okay, Neither ]
[ One Works ]
[ Would Either ]
[ One Have It’s Quirks ]
[ Does This Problem That You See ]
[ Have The Capability ]
[ Of Being Multiplied By (3)? ]
[ Maybe The Problem Could Be Resolved When You Sleep ]
[ Really Deep ]
[ But There Is One Problem With Those Theories ]
[ It Comes With Many Queries ]
[ Can You Ever Get Deep Enough? ]
[ Most Of The Time That Seems To Be Really Tough ]
[ Without Knocking Your Resolve ]
[ This Problem Cannot Be Solved ]
[ It Was A Valiant Try ]

(425)▪︎[ Was The Dream Real … 4•27•2020 ]
[ Sometimes I Wake Up In The Middle Of The Night ]
[ & I Have To Wipe The Fog Out Of My Eyes ]
[ So I Can Adjust To The Light ]
[ Then I See Something In The Shadows ]
[ I See Two Eyes & A Nose ]
[ Then I See ]
[ That I’m Looking In The Mirror ]
[ & It’s Me ]
[ I Look So Old ]
[ My Eyes Look So Cold ]
[ How Did Time Go By So Fast? ]
[ I Knew My Youthful Looks Wouldn’t Last! ]
[ But This Was Much Worse Than I Ever Expected ]
[ It Looked Very Obvious Up Close ]
[ It Was My Health That Was Neglected ]
[ My Skin Was Wrinkled & Gray ]
[ I Screamed @ The Mirror ]
[ Why Did I Let Myself Get This Way? ]
[ & It Became Clear ]
[ That I Didn’t Want To See What I Weighed ]
[ Then I Heard A Noise ]
[ It Was The Soft Sound ]
[ Of My Wife’s Voice ]
[ It Seemed ]
[ Like ]
[ She Was Startled Awake By My Scream ]
[ She Soothed Me ]
[ By Saying { YOU WERE JUST HAVING A BAD DREAM } ]
[ I Looked In The Mirror Once Again ]
[ I Saw That I Did Not Look Like Sin ]
[ Oh This Was A Win-Win ]
[ I Thanked My Wife For Waking Me Up ]
[ That’s When She Lifted Her Head ]
[ & Asked { I DID WHAT? } ]
[ So All That Was Real? ]
[ Now I Can’t Describe How Old I Feel ]

[ Would It Be Endless Trucks In Your Neighborhood ]
[ Filled With Your Favorite Ice Cream? ]
[ Chocolate, Vanilla, Orange Sherbet Or A Combination Swirl? ]
[ Covered With Hot Fudge ]
[ & The Tip Ends With A Curl? ]
[ My Dream Has So Many Moving Parts ]
[ It Would Never End ]
[ But I Really Don’t Know Where It Starts ]
[ The First Part Would Involve My Friend Maria, My Son, Some
Relatives Of My Wife & Nicole Of Course ]
[ Those Three Names ]
[ Are My Life Source ]
[ & I Feel No Shame ]
[ In Saying That Is Quite The Force ]
[ I’d Wish Eternal Happiness To My Best Friend ]
[ I Would Hope For Marital Bliss For Her To The Very End ]

(442)▪︎[ Another Dream … 5•26•2021 ]
[ Welcome To The Present ]
[ Where You Can Get Comments That You May Resent ]
[ From A Friend Or From A Family Member ]
[ Those Are The One’s That Hurt ]
[ & Seems To Be The One’s That You Remember ]
[ You Can Try To Shake Them Out Of The Memory Part
Of Your Brain ]
[ You Can Try To Wash Them Out By Standing Outside In
The Freezing, Pouring Rain ]
[ When The Thunder Booms ]
[ It Literally Shakes The Room ]
[ As Soon As You Go Outside ]
[ You Watch For The Lightning Strikes ]
[ But The Comments Are Still In Your Head ]
[ Do You Wait It Out ]
[ Or Take Your Night Meds ]
[ & Get Into Your Bed? ]
[ You Lay There Waiting For The Xyrem To Do It’s Thing ]
[ The Next Second You Are Watching The Start Of A Dream ]
[ Where Is This Dream Going? ]
[ Is There Water Flowing? ]
[ Or Is The Wind Blowing? ]
[ Maybe The Dream Is Taking You To Your Favorite Spot? ]
[ The Beach ]
[ You Have Had This Dream Alot ]
[ You Are Walking In The Sand ]
[ There Is No Time Schedule ]
[ Or Demands ]
[ Your Beautiful Wife Is Walking With You Beside Your Left
Shoulder ]
[ She Is The One Person Who Makes Your World Go ‘Round ]
[ The One Who Has Not Just Been A Rock, She Has Been Your
Boulder ]
[ She Has Been Much Bigger Than A Single Rock ]
[ That Would Be Like Comparing A Seiko Watch ]
[ To A Grandfather’s Clock ]
[ 25 Years Are In The Bank ]
[ You Look @ Your Wife, Because You Know, She Is The One To
Thank ]
[ The Water Is Now Touching Your Feet ]
[ You Both Go Further Up The Beach ]
[ Looking For Your Seat ]
[ It Is Sitting On This One Very Big Log ]
[ When You Look @ The Ocean In Awe ]
[ No One Could Ever Convince You That There Is No God ]
[ This Is Your Favorite Part Of The Day ]
[ When The Sun Starts To Give Way ]
[ To The New Moon ]
[ & Because It Is The Middle Of June ]
[ It Was Getting Late ]
[ I Had To See The Whole Sunset ]
[ & I Saw That It Was, Worth The Wait ]
[ But … That Is Not What I Got To See ]
[ The Morning Alarm Was Going Off To Wake Me ]
[ Watching The Full Sunset Was Not To Be ]
[ Maybe Tomorrow Night ]

[ Strength & Honor Is What They Say ]
[ Is The One Way ]
[ That You Should Live Your Life ]
[ Each & Every Day ]
[ When You Lay Your Head Down On Your Pillow @ Night ]
[ Can You Tell Your Conscience ]
[ That You Tried With All Of Your Might ]
[ To Do What You Thought ]
[ Was Right? ]
[ Those Nights You Will Have Good Dreams ]
[ Unlike The Nightmares ]
[ That Make You Let Out Endless Screams ]

[ & Your Wishes Show Through ]
[ For You ]
[ Dreams, Where There Are No Words That Harm ]
[ Where The Women Are Beautiful ]
[ & All The Men Have Charm ]
[ Where Chivalry Isn’t Dead ]
[ But Oftentimes A Chivalrous Act ]
[ Can Be Misread ]
[ When A Man Moves In Front Of A Woman To Open
A Door ]
[ His Intentions Are Good ]
[ & It Means Nothing More ]
[ No Good Intention Ever Dies ]
[ If It’s Not Based ]
[ On Deceit & Lies ]
[ But When It’s Time To Wake ]
[ There Is A Last Breath ]
[ That You Take ]
[ You Realize Those Were Not Dreams You Had ]
[ It Was The Afterlife That Was Taking You ]
[ Away From All That Was Bad ]
[ Even Though You Were Not Given The Chance ]
[ To Take Your Wife ]
[ Out For That Last Dance ]
[ She Knows You Are Now In A Better Place ]
[ You Hope That She Will Never ]
[ Ever ]
