By My Dream Poem by George Samuel

I went to my people
And met them like this
Their hands into their mouth
Their eyes their cheeks upon their head
At akimbo some utterly covered their face
And sat aside to watch their act
Until i fell deep asleep and dream
Of of a desperate deed i dream
Which had brought all these
There i knew what a change it was
Whether it was shock or shame
Or gain lose count them on
Of shame because they see me not yet hid
Of lose because their number had change
Then i called to them
And said my people
Those hands on mouth eyes
Upon head akimbo and on
Not enough reason by my dream
But your daydreaming
And sell of sleep
Had brought me home
To sleep with you
