i closed my eyes to dream
of green chocolate ice cream
a jar of transparent jelly beans
and some upside down jeans

i reached out with my hand
and fell into dry land
as i swam towards the shore
in this ocean of lore

flying cats ran abound
shedding whiskers all around
as jet propelled dogs try to bite
whatever may be in sight

i woke up in a shudder
in the midst of a fodder
the counter lady pulling my sleeve
are you going to pay for that? or leave
