"Yes: I am a dreamer. For a dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees the dawn before the rest of the world."
— Oscar Wilde (The Critic as Artist)


Last night I had a dream
That was quite wild
I dreamt of you and me
And of our child
Living in a world where
People were good and kind
A world that exists
But only in my mind

Last night I had a dream
That was quite wild
Of a world where all
People laughed and smiled
For there was no such thing
As this thing called war
Yet I opened my eyes
To find it there no more

Last night I had a dream
That was quite wild
And as I walked the streets
I knew that all the while
I really was living in
A land of nothing but lies
Yet somehow I wished
I didn't have to open my eyes

There is so much corruption in today's world that it is wild to imagine a world of harmony and peace.
