    Poem Commentary

    Less silly than my other works. Hope you like it.

    Sandman's Confessions

     No time to weep
    Or I'll put you to sleep.

    You'll go anyway,
    But I'll help you to stay.

    You see, I never sleep, myself.
    My job is nonstop
    Sprinkling sand in eyes
    Before people just drop.

    I do my job almost perfect,
    And I don't have to work it.

    Keeping people asleep,
    My job's hardly worth it!

    I have to admit, though,
    A cool part of my job:
    Is seeing people's dreams
    As their hearts softly throb.

    I am the Sandman
    The doing-my-job-man,

    The "guy-who-keeps-you-asleep-
    While-your-alarm-clock-goes-off-man."

    My job is nonstop
    Keepin' heads in beds soft.
    So forget the Candyman
    'Cause I am the Sandman

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.
