Poe's Revenge

Am I awake or dreaming?
I feel like screaming
"Wake me up!"
From this horror

Dreaming dreams that while dreaming
Never have I ever drempt before

Go back to sleep
And dream of drempt dreams
And nothing more

Now dreaming a dream
Never drempt

While in a dream
Dreaming dreams not remembered
Ever having dreamed such a dream
Will keep one awake
All night

But dreams that are dreamed
While dreaming drempt up dreams
Seems alright

Night terrors are dreams
And nothing more

While I lay here dreaming
I hear no screaming

I awake
To the sound of cackling
Poe is laughing

Amused at my tribute
To his beloved Elenore

"Caw caw."
I quote the Raven

"Dream this dream and sleep deep forever more."
