Sandman

Sandman, Sandman
Disallow the haunting
Of dreams so
terrifying.

Sandman, Sandman
Insomnia lives within
Of Hans Christian Anderson tales
release.

Sandman, Sandman
Gently falling asleep
Of Ole Lukøje folk
tales.

Sandman, Sandman
Mythic creature allow
Of fearlessly opened
eyes.

Sandman, Sandman
Sprinkle thy sand
Beneath the colored
umbrella.

Sandman, Sandman
Children dream deeply
Of magical stories
Goodnight.

DO YOU KNOW THE SANDMAN?:
(writing/poetry)

Shhhh...

Do you know the sandman..
.. the sandman?

Do you know the sandman..
.. the sandman?

well, I do

hightailing in your vagary
like whip lashes to your backside

he is what dreams cannot give your eyes

what a lonely surprise
he and the shadows combined

but he is spelling your dreams
sleeping beside you

in waves of moonlight

and he snatches away the lucent

in wake beside you he is whispering....

... shhhh

do you known the sandman...
... the sandman?

do you know the sandman...
... the sandman?

If you do well then,
he knows you too..

once upon many dreams you've met

and on one too many wheels turning... he crept

while it spins you're in an abominable threat

he'll tare down your sunlight
thinking he was the moonlight

ringing in your ears yet he huggs you in tighter to never awake

he loves to stay still
and never likes to move on

he poke's at ever membrain
holding in all what's meant

in his palms hold your soul,
in control

cities in your mind in abominiation
destruction and fear

there, standing in the shadows
he is waiting.

Do you know the sandman..
.. the sadnman?

Do you know the sandman?

.. well, I do.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN WEEKDAY!
Derick Van Dusen Nov 2010
Sandman find me, are you looking?
Sandman look for me, are you finding?
Slumber ceases while delirium increases.
Setting in to take its hold, Sandman left me cold.

  Wheres the dream when night is come and Sandman has forgot.
Forgot to grant to me this slumber, where dreams come of you.
Your the reason that Im not sleeping, wheres my Sandman now?
Now for her your job complete, please Sandman, grant me sleep.

  Here sit I the time is nigh for Sandman to come again.
Again I say where has Sandman gone I need to dream.
Dream again of fairest face but Sandman took its place.
Place on me mine misery of slumber turning out my light.

  What now to do that sleep eludes even crafty me?
Drag Sandman from foot of bed and shoot him in the head.
Now hes gone, his spells been lifted, so now I fall to sleep.
Dozing of the slumber, the sleep for which I keep.
