Analysis of Engrossed in Sleep



When I become engrossed in sleep
vicinity turns up light,
My memory drifts into the dreamy stream of note and is tuned in my unthinking awareness,
Of that I cannot make any guess.

Many a memory does it have in many a dream of belief,
It knows no limits
It drifts and drifts.
