Let Sleepy Man Lie

February 1, 2008 | Filed Under Poetry 

am the sleepy man
the groggy-eyed super-hero,
who saves the world ©

i make it a beautiful place
for your children to live in.
in my dreams.

i am so sleepy
it’s not funny
i sleep at night
to make the world more sunny
i will sleep in the day too
if u give me some whisky
or rum

and don’t ever ever
show me the deadly cup of kapi
my greatest enemy
the world will be awake
and everything dead

i am the sleepy man
i will save the world for you
if you let me sleep
