I like watching people sleep because they always look so peaceful in their dreams They are cuddled on their sides stretching out their seams They dream of silky women and of deserts and of seas One runs through a forest of trees dripping sap and turning to bees Sleep studies show classical in your sleep turns to being wise But if you were wise you wouldn't have clawed out your eyes She cried when you did it but it wasn't you it was the dream The dream was whispering to wipe your eye sockets clean with your nails in your sleep
