I lay down
and then go to sleep
and a dark bull
comes over to see me
he doesn'thave a name
he doesn't have a number
so I decide to call him
dark bull
he tells me to look
to the east
and asks what do I see
I say a bear with no hair
hanging from a tree
he says four times three
and three times seven
and then be sure you
look to the heavens
he paws the earth
three times to be sure
and says look oh man
to the west
and what do you see
I say a horse
with a black black mane
he says listen
to what the horse
has to say
the horse makes a terrible shriek
then these words rolled off his tounge
my time is near
my time is close
to the end
shadows of darkness
are now there only friends
the dark bull smiled
as I sracthed behind
his ears
he spoke again
look to the north
look my friend
I saw a mountain of gold
with pine trees colored red
and a woman lay there also
with sapphire blue eyes
and this is what she said
you have become straight and
true
as steel in the fire
and you may now have as
you desire
the dark bull shivers
as though senseing
something from hell
and says he must
leave quickly
he speaks one last time
and says
all will be well
