How do you sleep at night? With one eye open or one eye closed?
Dreaming of knights in shining armour, or amour in [with] shining nights?
How do you sleep at night? Do you dream of impending death, or [upending] impending [this] life?
Dreaming of C= Squared, or of squares being equal [stuffed] with Cs?
How do you sleep at night? Do you dream in the blues, the blacks, the yellows, or the whites?
Blue I hope. [I like the blues].
How can’t you sleep at night? Laying and thinking. how you can solve the [world’s] problems.
Problems of Linus, Lucy, Schroeder, Charlie Brown and Snoopy.
But not Pig Pen as he [or is it she?] just reminds you of the house [pen] you live in.
Maybe you think of things you can do in a house, counting them one-by-one, until…. you… dose [not doze]…. off? The kitchen, the bathroom, the bedroom.
Baking the perfect cake [you like to bake]; write the perfect letter [you like to write], watch the perfect film [you like to watch]?
And then, maybe you think about him…..or her…..or them… ‘If only he,’ or ‘if only she,’ or “if only they’.
“If only I…’
[You wonder, how does he…she…they]
