A good a night (Sandman II)



At last I slept again
after three broken nights
it was about time though
good it found its balance

Cause when it fights back
it could become a problem
maybe an awakening nightmare
or a sleeping wanderer

Luckily for me it stabilized
so I don't have to duobt no more
that is, it solved itself
with some help of good friends

Who are these friends
I hear you wonder
well that little secret is mine
one I'm willing to tell you

Though when the time is ripe
with Sandman I have a score to settle
still cutting down on the expences
his fruits of labour comes from me

Writing is a need like eating and sleeping. I think we are all wondrous creatures who deserve to love ourselves and live in freedom. I like to participate in cases which can make a difference for myself, my surroundings and the earth. My wish: humanity in a non-dualistic society. more…
