Why do I bother to dream
Upon a cloud that lays in heavens thoughts
To visualize that the words could change the empty pit
Into a garden so beautiful that all could see it

So in a dream a letter appears to suggest
That you have a chance to blossom
You investigate in caution
But the answer lies in the mists of scams

The old saying if it is too hard to be true
Then it probably is, floats before you
So angel of mercy why did you not show your face
Soon enough to avoid the pain
Of another bubble bursting in sorrow

Spraying me with drowning tears
That makes you want to change your verse
Into something so sour
That your stomach empties in acid burn

In the search for an open window
That sunshine can come in and dance with me
In a prayer that put me on my knees
But you broke my window in
And brought in the storm
To devastate my humble abode

In the end run of corporate integrity it flows out like diarrhea. But Enron will not go away for the flu like virus went unchecked. Now we all have to go to the darn toilet only what comes out of us is green and worth a lot for than the stock used for the other purpose.
(I just made this up for a smile on a politician who is used to this mess. I could make further comments but then I would not get their vote of confidence.)

D Lester,
It sounds like it's a good thing dreams are fleeting.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown
