1.

I had a dream last night
of wisp and dove -- and rose
to find I wasn't in
the great land of my foes.

I was free, as one mightn't
have thought above or below
but to the depths (you just might find)
is where I have to go.

They all think that down is bad,
well I would have to say
that down is where I want to go
and down is where I'll stay.

Doesn't seem to shake or stir
so far below the ground.
It's so calm -- and quiet
underneath my dirty mound.

They allow me to arise
on certain days and nights
to scare the children all away
and to see the lights.
