REM Thief



 I understand that you can
Send a message across this Galaxy the way we can talk on a cell to friends on the other side of this Earth.


   But do you understand that "how" that message is translated
In the body it is received in
depends upon Culture, language, gender, & the personal Past that body went through?

  I don't think you do.

 Do you understand,

That if that receiver doesn't have just the right cells in their DNA turned on or off ON YOUR frequency-----that you are
FRying their brains like lightning
Talking to Rain?

     I don't think you do.

I can handle the Idea,
 That you're Dumbing Down 'Dream emails" for me.

  What I can't handle is
Dream Spam that makes 1 hours sleep feel like years.

  Don't you see?

  You're Killing me!

  So, is it you or me?

Who's the REM thief?
