You dreamed about the ‘Dark Side of the Moon’
and remembered how you wanted to know
why Floyd was pink
about the dark side of the moon
if you can’t see it
and you remembered how you hid
dirty clothes under your bed
because your mother
didn’t want to see your mess
and you remembered you didn’t wear underwear
with your dress pants to church
because your father only checked to see
if you shined your shoes and combed your hair
and you remembered as a boy
you peeped in the bathroom window
at the neighbor girl, but no one worried about being seen naked
if they didn’t know someone wass watching
and you fell back asleep with the melody
of the ‘Dark Side of the Moon’
playing in your head
still wanting to know why Floyd is pink.
