The Nightmare

LET THE NIGHTMARE BEGIN!!

I had a dream strange but true

That might shock and terrify you

It’s from my house in Cornwall, you see,

And this dream meant much harm to me.

I was asleep in bed, enjoying Dreamland’s ride

With Luke, Resus and Cleo asleep by my side

Chester asleep on one end of the bed

As a soppy dream began filling my head

My friends and I were roaming around the street

Where on the windows cupcakes were cooling for us to eat

There were games to play in the graveyard with friends

Oh, this joy never ends

Suddenly, the sky began to glow blood red

The sun became orange and above our heads

Tall skyscrapers began to tower

As the residents ran in a scattering shower

The American flag was lifted above,

America’s taking the friends I love

So I took out my gun and returned fire

The hole in the flag reached my desire

“How do you like it?” I yelled in anger,

“America, you’re a trapjawed cloakandagger!”

Suddenly, an arm took hold of my hand

And dragged me away, not to Dreamland

But to a glitchy pit of static below

Down, down to Hell I go!

“AAAAAAAA!!” I scream as I shoot awake,

Surely there must be some mistake.

But it wasn’t. The dream wasn’t real.

The safety of my friends I can still feel,

And so’s the soft fur of Chester dear,

And my secret green door is still here.

With Luke’s arm round me, without further delay

I fall asleep, ready for another day of play

But that doesn’t accept that fact

That the bigots of America are coming back…
