Jacob’s Ladder

I dream in shadows;
Dream in black and white
Sleepwalk in the daytime
Sleeptalking at night
Misdirection, no connection
Between here or there
Forward‚ backwards‚ sideways
Climbing on a stair

Ascend‚ descend – Keep climbing, I’m climbing
Here and there – Keep climbing, I’m climbing
Blend‚ pretend – Keep climbing, I’m climbing
Everywhere – Keep climbing, I’m climbing

Pendulum for a lifestyle
Ricochet off the sun
Tell-tale heart
No stop and no start
No beginning and no end

Angels gave Jacob peyote
Then they turned him loose
Tongue wagging like a bitch in heat
Squawking like a goose

Ascend‚ descend – Keep climbing, I’m climbing
Here and there – Keep climbing, I’m climbing
Blend, pretend – Keep climbing, I’m climbing
Everywhere – Keep climbing, I’m climbing

Misdirection, no connection
Between here or there
Forward, backwards, sideways
Climbing on a stair

Ascend, descend – Keep climbing, I’m climbing
Here and there – Keep climbing, I’m climbing
Blend, pretend – Keep climbing, I’m climbing
Everywhere – Keep climbing, I’m climbing
