Story Teller II (the mill's on fire)


the bells are clanging and sirens scream

woke me up from a most unusual dream

oxygen was getting low about to expire

heard someone yell help the mill's on fire


jumped out of bed grabbed my boots

truck horn is blasting giving two toots

slide down the long pole helmet in hand

down through the tunnel to never neverland


the giant cat with whiskers of gold

shivering now why is it so damn cold

my naked body exposed to the raw

took a swipe at me with his huge paw


men on unicycles doing fancy tricks

juggeling balls and poking me with sticks

somebody tell me what does it all mean

Gong show's Gene Gene the dancing machine


someone please help me show me the way

this dream is a blast but I cannot stay

crackling timbers that horrible sound

the fire is burning the mill to the ground


I really must wake up and go I have a job to do

it is desperate when someone's counting on you

just 40 more winks though would really be nice

just spray it with water and tons of shaved ice

This was a wild dream to awake from. I got tire just reading the fairytale in your words. I like the many places you took me. We need good dreams to keep us content in the lands of dreams. I like the ending. Nothing better then 40 more winks. A excellent poem.
