THE DREAM

THE DREAM

A loud

Bang

Woke me

Up.

I was

In deep

Sleep,

Dreaming...

Barely

Muffled

Voices

Reached 

Me.

I listened 

Attentively.

Let's take

All the

Gold and 

Money,

Too.

That good

With you?

It's fine

Just as

Long as

We hurry!

Two voices

Made

Me jump 

Out

Out of

Bed.

They'd take

Nothing

But a beating

I'd see

To that!

Grabbing 

My robe

I put it

On

And left

My room

Only to return

With a 

Sauce pan

And a broom.

Behind the

Door

I hid

At tbe

Ready!

Soon, they

Were 

In

And getting

Beat up

By me.

Long story

Short

I led

Them out 

Like discarded

Laundry,

Told the 

Police

Everything 

And went

Back

To sleep.

What a

Fun

Dream!
