Dream, Desire and Doctor

Dream, Desire and Doctor

P K Routray

For the word “Dream” as we generally cite, write and mean

in dictionary and Google search, such meanings are never seen.

One may agree or may not agree,

in the meaning of dream, desire we see.

In the best of our desires, in fantasy and ecstasy we generally float

but least of my dreams match such desires, from my experiences, I quote.

Here I pose a challenge to doctors, psychiatrists and chemists to ponder

to add something to sleeping pill to make man sleep and dream sweeter

At his will and whim, man can sleep and dream as fancied

not to interrupt his dream, as willed he may be given some sleeping feed.

How nice would be then this world of anxiety and tension,

avoiding his earthly worries, with these pills man can sleep, dream at will and have plenty of fun.

As patent to my thought I deserve a share of earnings from the Nobel inventors

to distribute among poet friends to purchase these pills for many a poetic wonder.
