No two are identical though
They begin from the same
Point in time the same point in
The dream when the radio shuts
Itself off in the middle of
“Just in Time” (Sinatra version)
The curtains are blowing in
And the driver of the hearse
Outside looks up and says “Room
For one more” and now you
Know what kind of hospital you’re in
And you must escape from it
By acting “normal” pretending there isn’t
A conspiracy against you as Dead of Night
Shifts into Shock Corridor
There are a dozen versions of this dream
I keep thinking of what Ashbery said
About escapism he said we need
All the escapism we can get
And even that isn’t going to be enough
