“We are such stuff as
dreams are made on;
and our little life is
rounded with a sleep.”
- William Shakespeare
in The Tempest
“We are such stuff as dreams
are made on;
and our little life is rounded
with a sleep.”
Capo V

We see; we think. We think; we
believe.
We believe so hard until we stop
to see.
The stories we tell ourselves
compel
us into action like a sleepwalker
strolling through the streets.
We believe the stories we tell
ourselves
as if they were real, but really
they're only in our heads.
So I wish you sweet dreams, but
if you prefer nightmares,
the choice is yours. Pick your
dreams carefully and beware.

“We are such stuff as dreams
are made on;
and our little life is rounded
with a sleep.”
