Dont wake the dreamer
Disturbed, playing guitar
Playing for this awful lady
With his awful songs
The non-spoken, tired vocals
The foundation and the sleeping nation
Friends of those they didnt like
All power to the fishy ones
Enemies of some
The sea and the sun
Inhabited, the island flew away
Following the dreamer,
Who just might seem too short
And too ignorant
And too proud to get a cut
And while the barber grins his wicked grin
The Island arrived to benefit the counterweights
And the friends are all banded together
Playing their own mindfucked game
Knowing, there is only the one
The one Good Sheppard

But this is a really good poem. I've found myself writing things that I don't know the meaning of, too.
Cheers!

All those who believe in telekinesis, raise my hand.
Smile, and the world will smile with you. Laugh and they'll all think you're on drugs.

For me the skill an artist should strive for is not saying something important but presenting their art in the most aesthetically conscious, beautiful and (above all) frivolous way possible hence Oscar Wildes comment all art is pointless.
Well it looks like youve ticked all my boxes! This is a perfectly executed, gem of a poem. Im getting a few hints and references to religion or the cultural and historical effects on art or both juxtaposing each other maybe? The foundation and the sleeping nation.
Well, I can't exclude that ^____^ But as you've might noticed I use religion often in my poems. But who knows? Not me for sure ;] Cheers for your awesome comment. You've certainly gave me something to think about!
