"The Sandman's Visit"
by David Hart




Asleep now and now the

Sandman with his night dreams

Arrives

His sheer smoky subtle sleep is near


Now tip-toeing in the realm of Morpheus

Vibrating vivacious visions anon appear


Incredulous colorless dream

A dream of

paradoxically and passionately

Pursuing


And then, being persistently prudently

Pursued in a mesmerizingly melodious

Mood.


Some faint feisty foggy fantastic vision--

a feeling of being luxuriously lost--

deliciously disoriented.


Dusty dense delirious delighting

And, misty musky marauding meandering

Mellifluous murky sight yields to

Tall tempestuous towering

High happy honey combed apartment

Buildings


There.  Quizzical quintessential

Quirky quagmires of chuckle-headed

cheeky choices---


There are friends

of the past who never

really wanted to last--

There are friends of the present

soon to be friends of the past.


From boisterous building to

Behemoth building--

Lackadaisically looking,

 serenely searching,

Playfully pursuing

And, with people there's

Sharp scintillating schmoozing


Until the on coming light languishes--

her lurid lids--

Lift----

To a new day.
