Rather Steep
A word to those in dreamless sleep
“Wake up! Live life! Go live and dream.
Dreams do not stale - they’d rather steep.”
The mass, the thought cannot conceive,
Numb minds, molasses, could not gleam,
A word to those in dreamless sleep.
Rise up against the slowing creep.
Though hope’s asunder by the seam,
Dreams do not stale - they’d rather steep.
The grain the idle never reap.
Those enlightened are heard to scream
A word to those in dreamless sleep:
“The growing wall is not too steep!
All rivers start a single stream,
Dreams do not stale - they’d rather steep.
Sometimes through faith you have to leap
Play no requiem for a dream
A word to those in dreamless sleep:
Dreams do not stale - they’d rather steep.”
