Sounds like the Sandman is some sort of creep, who puts dirt in your eyes while you sleep. Also, I heard...that he sleeps with the sheep. You can count on him to sleep deep in those sheep. So yes, he's a creep, and he lurks in the night, but he isn't bed bug and he'd never bite. You will dream sweetly and sleep extra tight. When you awake you'll have crap in your eye. A weird little gift, from one strange little guy.
