Morpheus
One enters a dream-like state
Upon a pillow of mystical fate
Here it seems that the unconscious mind rules
And the seeping vision of Freud pools
One enters the Halls of Olympus in an indistinct haze
Like the mind, composed of locked doors and a seemingly endless maze
The floors: marble, icy and cold
The walls are cracked and covered with mold
One descends a set of stairs and emerges on a landing
A cold breeze whips our skin, and here we see Morpheus himself standing
He whispers "It is I, the God of Dreams
In my world, nothing is as it seems
"Freud was wrong, his song is out of tune
To me, the God of Dreams, he was nothing but a confused loon
Dreams serve no purpose but to amuse me
Every person's inner door is locked, and I have melted the key"
