Dreams truly don't blatantly come to me anymore
since after a while my nightmares seemed to be a chore.
They would come and wake me in my sleep
and they would blurt all the secrets I could keep.
They would ruin my life in numerous ways
and they would blunder all of my glorious plays.
They would ruin even the most novel man.
They could bring a man down to tears
and rip you apart with your worst fears.
I went down to the witch doctor to get some remedy
and he told me these were just things that were to come to be.
So since then I don't dream anymore
since after all dreaming the future is such a chore.
