Dream baby
In dreams
Sweet dreams
Dream baby (how long must I dream)
Dream
All I have to do is dream
Beautiful dreamer
Big as I can dream
When I stop dreaming
(All I can do is) Dream You
Afraid to Sleep
In the real world

Roy Orbison's dream - a poem/text work built of Roy's song titles mentioning dreams. An experiment in words which straddles that thin crevasse between song and poetry. The word 'dream' now appears completely foreign too me. As when one repeats a word aloud too and it loses any meaning, reverting back to just sounds. It seems this can happen with written words as well. Too many dreams, Roy, too many dreams.
