Travel in Daydreams

I travel the world in daydreams.

I become someone else sometimes.

I live to a ripe old age and then

I become myself completely satisfied.

I follow no one. It is the only way

to feel free. Traveling in daydreams

is not unlike traveling in a regular dream.

I find an open road and pick up steam.

Suddenly, I am flying in the sky.
