A Dream To Sell

I have a dream I need to sell, a quick pitch I must make.
Can I have your attention? A few minutes are all it will take.
Yes this ain’t one of the ninety-nine worries you are plagued by,
But I owe this dream my duty, I am afraid I must comply.

This dream tells you a story, it sings you a nice song,
It transports you to a world beyond right and wrong.
Not quite a superhero, it is more of a jester
That thrills and entertains you with a grandiose gesture.

You might find it peeping through a blog or a spam mail,
Or at times its vanity pushes it behind a veil.
But it stays in encrypted links and subtle reminders
Its creator has stepped aside, to your verdict he surrenders.

Don’t look at your watch, I know I have overstayed,
Thank you for lending an ear, my day is made.
Spare a thought for the dream before you turn the other way,
For a hundred unknown stories have shown it the light of the day.
