Perhaps, sitting here just reading
Has filled my mind with such wayward thoughts
As to be considered, at best, as nonsensical.
But then, sometimes nonsensical is correct.
Time and time alone can give us the answer.
Let’s consider whether, or not, it’s nonsensical.
Where shall we start? At the beginning?
Of course! But where does it begin?
Let’s start with one of my crazy dreams.
I am usually the hero striding through a crowd
To rescue someone in distress, deathly frightened.
And that’s nonsense, I’m only five foot seven
Weigh only one hundred, thirty-seven pounds
And that’s when I’m soaking wet, clothes and all.
But, in a dream, anything is possible, I think.
The last time I rescued some poor soul,
I woke up in the tangle of my bed clothes.
I remember leaping from a high cliff
Rescuing a young child from a raging river.
Of course, the bed was a terrible mess
With swimming so hard to escape that flow
