Dream Addiction
Gods, kings, and heroes
Were all woven from different materials,
But a common thread in each
Came from their ability to dream.
Anyone in the arms of Morpheus
Could dream of their future or divine messages.
Gods could dream of power, kings of riches,
And heroes could dream of glory.
Times have changed since dreams first started,
Dreams don’t come easily for those who writhe in pain.
Morpheus needs the help
That comes from morphine.
Dreams can be addicting,
So morphine is used more and more.
Morpheus must work overtime
For these people who just can’t quit.
