Don't Grow Up
Our dreams get angry with us
“How come we’re not part of the plan?”
“None of this political maneuvering
between the chair and the bed.”
Our dreams screaming at us
from everything heard and said
“I can’t believe this-don’t let
your heart get bought by your head.”
And the body moves
calls a timeout
Wining and dining
And sleeping it off
A sense of relief felt on Mondays-
We’ve fooled those dreams again
