An Audience of One

Happy C.V. moves the legs,

jumping sheep turn to waves.

Salty, sand-filled;

the mind is pregnant with a dreamless sleep,

The safety of an alloy friend.

interrupts the soft glow of the new year.

Drinking Jack,

watching God give light.

Sleep to some people is an escape from reality, letting them live the way they wished. That is how dreams work. Dreams are magical in that they allow anyone to be and do anything, with no restrictions. If this is true, however, then don’t dreams abuse people? Dreams will give you an expectation for reality that can never be reached, making you believe that reality is not enough, never satisfying. Then you will never want to wake up from a dream, but stay in slumber your whole life in order to feel happiness. What would you do if you could never dream?

Then there are some people who are living a dream. They wake up and feel blessed and happy to have opened their eyes another day. For them, reality is the dream, and sleeping is just part of the routine.
