A Dream
It was a very cold clear fall night
I had a terrible dream
Billy name and brigid were playing under my stair case
On the second floor about two oclock in the morning
I woke up
Because amos and archie had started barking
That made me very angry
Because I wasnt feeling well and I told them
I was very cross the real me
That they just better remember
What happened to sam the bad cat
That was left at home and got sick and went pussy heaven
It was a very cold clear fall night
Some snowflakes were falling
Gee, it was so beautiful
And so I went to get my camera to take some pictures
And then I was taking the pictures
But the exposure thing wasnt right
And I was going to call fred or gerry
To find out how to get set it
I was too late
And then I remembered they were still probably at dinner
And anyway
I felt really bad and didnt want to talk to anybody
But the snowflakes were so beautiful and real looking
And I really wanted to hold them
And thats when I heard the voices
From down the hall near the stairs
So I got a flashlight
And I was scared and I went out into the hallway
Theres been all kinds of troubles
Lately in the neighborhood
And someones got to bring home the bacon and anyway
There were brigid and billy playing
And under the stair case
Was a little meadow sort of like the park at 23rd street
Where all the young kids go and play frisbee
Gee, that must be fun
Maybe we should do an article on that in the magazine
But theyll just tell me Im stupid and it wont sell
But Ill just hold my ground this time, I mean
Its my magazine, isnt it?
So I was thinking that as the snowflakes fell
And I heard those voices having so much fun
Gee, it would be so great to have some fun
So I called billy
But either he didnt hear me or he didnt want to answer
Which was so strange
Because
Even if I dont like reunions Ive always loved billy
