Fever Dream

You seem a dizzy dream to me--
nothing more than a fever delusion--
and you put my mind to ecstasy

as you force me to dance, make me feel free.
But you spin me around, elicit confusion.
You seem a dizzy dream to me.

My head falls back, hot and heavy,
into your hands and ready for fusion
and you put my mind to ecstasy.

No more longing; lacking loneli-
ness and was-ever-present exclusion
but you seem a dizzy dream to me.

So I faint and fall to my knees--
again, head back, incoming contusion
and you put my mind to ecstasy

when your palms cradle me up, unexpectedly.
And I'd swear you're just an illusion.
See, you seem a dizzy dream to me
yet you put my mind to ecstasy.
