The Nether Beings' Sandman Elated by their success, Sublime with the arrival of fruitful things, Congretating in invisible circles, Sequestering the tone of the bell that rings, A long morning SongBird begins to sing, The honey sweet sand in the corner of my eye, I recall that dream, unable to die, I remember I tried, I think I cried, Away I flew, and fell, and ran from the chaser, The sand I tasted, it tastes like honeydew, Hark! I now record, explosions occured, And torn people obscure, yet indelibly imbued into the core of my heart, I gaze at the recollection, I know where to start, I thought I made it up, but began to realize, All of it happened, in disproportional time, I see their faces! They're everywhere! I can hold them close, I can taste the air, I could smell every strand of that one girl's hair, Oh! That one girl! Crying upon me, trembling, A haven of consolation I humbly beared, My arms held her still, She held me until, The sun rose over those distant hills, I stare away at this past, The faces stare back at me, Fallen kings, unknown soldiers, the greatest thieves! Enlightenment serves the one who believes, For last night I galloped the wood, With my old friend Robin Hood! And that one girl so mere, with ravaging tears, I had to leave her, for her and I know, The same happened to her, a thousand years ago. |
