The windows to your world Start to slowly close shut Fingers move less nimbily Brain clicks into auto pilot As the world gyrates around you You stay perfectly still The noise is distant, miles away Almost an out of body ordeal Your feline or canine friend Snuggled close to youd back Pillows surround the body Thoughts drifting more and more of track Floating into the darkness Upward into the sky You ponder your life And ask the important questions like "why?' Finally it engulfs you Swollowing you whole Mr. Sand Man's job is done And he has checked off all his goals

Mr. Sand Man
The windows to your world Start to slowly close shut Fingers move less nimbily Brain clicks into auto pilot As the world gyrates around you You stay perfectly still The noise is distant, miles away Almost an out of body ordeal Your feline or canine friend Snuggled close to youd back Pillows surround the body Thoughts drifting more and more of track Floating into the darkness Upward into the sky You ponder your life And ask the important questions like "why?' Finally it engulfs you Swollowing you whole Mr. Sand Man's job is done And he has checked off all his goals
