dreams

with foggy mcfog

captain of the 

team 

Did you hear the breeze? 

                it is quiet right now 

    except for that guy who 

coughs    

        It sounds like he is sitting outside in the dark 

  that cough doesn't sound too good

                  

                    but it's quiet now 

except occasional clunks and thumps 

                                          from the neighbors below 

                       or the wind blowing the shade 

   

                                                                        I love that kind of stillness

  

                                   the quiet

                                                                                   when my brain isn't working overtime

                      San Francisco breeze

                                                          off the ocean 

                                              and through Golden Gate Park

                            when my brain isn't working overtime

     still I might relax in the night 

when I should be asleep 

  and smoke a cigarette laying in bed 

              "you'll burn the house down" 

               but it's a railroad flat 

                                 You always gotta be right 

          dontcha? 

wait, what?

   see?    

      when my brain is working overtime 

                 

                                     Oh, I'll smoke a cigarette 

and forget about it 

                             it's not going anywhere
