Now I lay my head in a hollow pillow
For it is time for my soul to speak in sleep
I pray to be touched by the powers of Apollo
And not lay awake just to count them sheep
As I rest my cranium in the cosmic dusk
Let my Id peel away the daily ego husk
And when I awake to a brand new dawn
Let all of yesterday’s troubles be lost- be gone
Jack Russell
