Hopes we take into our sleep Become the seeds of dreams to come; Fears then, roots of nightmares. Stir our hearts awake, If you must Wind gypsies crooning quixotic notes Dappled like leopard in dandelion dust Caught in the clatter of castanets If poems were sheep, this one would be black That one is black, And that one is black. Pupils leaping into pathos, Without a splash, That one is black, that one is black. Somnolence, when ripples lull Where all lambs go, when somnolent, When somnolent.
