They say we all dream,

that fantasy worlds await.

I remember naught

I fell off the couch

Hungry serpents slithered near

Mom did not hear me

a song made by us, we shiny happy people of wood and paper

a stressful work dream

whoops, an accounting mistake

but easy to fix

missed booking a subledger

it was Keifer Sutherland

stress stress stress stress stress

stress stress stress stress stress stress stress

stress stress stress stress stress

Guest wants a coffee
Threw fried eggs in the handsink
Can I still serve them?

exsuscitō
sed lūx non accendit
iam somniō

I wake myself up
But the light does not turn on
Still inside the dream

Note: in the Latin version I'm only counting two morae per syllable for the long vowels, not for the codas. (Japanese barely uses coda, if I do it here the verses get too long.) The English version disregards syllable weight.

Flaming meteor Escaping the destruction That was just the start

Moved my arm upwards

Ended up with a big bruise

Then looked at weather

Dog cut open,

Attacked through the chain link fence

Why did it happen

• sad girl at party
• she is a famous pop star
• i braided her hair

Chased by bully and run, Sun brings light to new dreams truth, Fire suns light to build new world.

Explanation: I can lucid dream. The sun coming up in the morning woke me enough in the middle of a nightmare where I was running from an old school bully. I used the light of the sun to turn and fire a bolt of energy at the bully at which point I became like Neo and rebuilt the world.
