The Thousand Nights and One Night

I dreamt of tadpoles
I dreamt of wax candles burning
I dreamt I was flying
I dreamt I was falling

But for all those nights of dreaming
I never once dreamt of you

I dream of cabbages cooking
On my grandmother's stove
I dream of rats crawling
Amid the Fresh Kills Dump

But for all those nights of dreaming
I never once dreamt of you

I dreamt of a Far Side calendar
It was glowing neon bright
Against the infinite ink black
Of a star-cluttered night

But for all those nights of dreaming
Between all those sleepless days
All those nights I spent dreaming away
I never once dreamt of you
