The land of nod a simple task we all end up this way Thoughts colliding into a poodle skirt sands of time run through our hands sleep. The devil approaches bobbing his head, the beat of a jungle drum sounds through the city. "how do I know that everyone else here is real?"I ask Then the devil looks at me and sighs, "You'll just have to trust me...." Trust the devil!?Not me!I'm no fool. "You'll just have to wait and see...." Oh,those last kisses I got before I went to sleep! How sweet they were,small pecks on the cheek. Could I have died in my sleep? The look in mothers eyes. Yesterday she yelled at me,she'll cry for me now. Oh,this waking dream is making me bitter. I hate it when this happens.The drums now beat louder. The devil cuts his head in two with his wide smile. I breath deeply.I am alive! "Sleep,dear twit,sleep says mother. I see a gleam in her eye. She fluffs my pillow. I lay down and die. It's just the little death though. I'll be fine come morning. sleep twit sleep.
