Captain Snooze

What goes on in the minds of man?  
 
We are barely awake.  
 
23 out of 24 hours we sleep not always in our beds.  
 
23 out of 24 hours we sleep but mostly in our heads.  
 
We walk, we talk,we eat,we work,we fuck.  
 
But tell me honestly.How present were you in any of those acts ?  
 
Oh you will say you were there, on top of her, pounding away.....but you weren't.  
 
Did you take in the sounds,the tastes,the smells of sex?Did you notice pain or pleasure or that you had even turned from human to beast.  
 
A hungry beast that has no time for being awake.Devour or die.
