My Logic Withers Away

There is only one place I can go where equality and individuality coexist.
To get there all I have to do is go to sleep.
Dreaming is the place where my creativity takes over
and I have complete control over the outcome of the actions of others.
Dreams are the land of equality and the place where individuality is applauded.
Dreams allow for the potential of every man to be fully exercised,
and dreams are the place where even the poorest of men can experience wealth.
Dreams are the place where my imagination takes over and my logic withers away-
blocking the harsh realities of the world
if only for a few hours.
