Winds of influence, thin as iron
Subservient to the metallic pallet.
The sandman, he comes
In nightshade, he clumps
All thinkers in the corner of a room.
“Dream,” he went on
***** quite fertile
The Delaware cross-gleam in brow.
“Now is the present,” they agreed in the moment
That the present surely was now.
“I know that you wonder, and I wonder too,
naturally it’s something we do.
Awake with the knowledge that everything’s something
And something is nothing new.”

Winds of influence, thin as iron
Subservient to the metallic pallet.
The sandman, he comes
In nightshade, he clumps
All thinkers in the corner of a room.
“Dream,” he went on
***** quite fertile
The Delaware cross-gleam in brow.
“Now is the present,” they agreed in the moment
That the present surely was now.
“I know that you wonder, and I wonder too,
naturally it’s something we do.
Awake with the knowledge that everything’s something
And something is nothing new.”
