Morgan's Sinister Dream

Steven West

Morgan fell into a deep sleep.

Shortly after, he heard a strange creep.

A voice called out to Morgan.

"Time to cry.

Time to die."

Morgan looked into his dream.

There was a sinister machine.

"Time to cry.

Time to die."

The machine had diabolical eyes.

It lifted up Morgan despite his cries.

The machine tossed Morgan into the air.

And then it struck him with a chair.

Morgan stirred in his sleep.

He heard the voice of Little Bo Peep.

"Morgan, wake up my dear.

The machine is about to chop off your ear."

All of a sudden Morgan woke up from his dream.

He felt like he was struck by a powerful beam.

Thank heaven the whole dream wasn't real.

He was glad that he wasn't the machine's final meal.
