Weird Dreams

Weird Dreams

Sometimes I’m falling down

a spiral staircase

and my little Shih Tzu saves

me from the fall.

Then suddenly Mom calls me

from the kitchen asking

me to give the potatoes

a haircut.

Out of nowhere I am

getting married to a frog

My dad starts crying

and tearing his shirt apart

Now my brother is competing

in the Olympics against a

group of toads.

They are doing bunny hops

from Delhi to London.

I get such weird dreams

every odd night.

They become crazier

with each wink

messing with my brain

every time.
