REALITY

A Time To Dream

There’s a time and place for everything;
at least that’s what Solomon said;
perhaps, it means there’s a time to dream;

We understand that most dream in their sleep;
but, more than a few; dream while awake;

The Masked Man

I’m now confined to sleep with a mask;
and no; I’m not a super hero;
extreme sleep apnea has forced this task;
sleep comfort; dropped to zero.

Sleep used to be my means of relaxing;
looking forward to closing my eyes;

Second Fiddle

We all seek to be the cream of the crop;
one, upon which all others focused;
wanting to be one; that no one can stop;

Sleep, At Last

I’ve a digital clock upon my desk;
