I recall singing that song when I was a small child and wondering what did it mean? – Life is just a dream? Row, row, row your boat, Gently down the stream. Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, Life is but a dream. But where did this come from and who wrote it? A bit of research suggests that the earliest printing of it was in 1852 but who wrote it and why seems lost in the mists of time. If anyone knows, please let me know… I thought life a dream when I was a child or rather, I thought it a game that I controlled. It was a sort of virtual reality (as it would be called now) and I was sat in a box connected to a machine that

It’s so dark I can hardly see A gloom lies all around A dark blanket of heaviness Like the fog that envelopes My mind in misty confusion A dark and gloomy conclusion I’m tired so very tired Death and destruction War and virulent pestilence There is neither truth nor sense In anything that I see Yet is this an echo of me? Deeper I seem to fall And the deeper it gets The more I feel constrained As if trapped and contained In some sort of heavy mud Some stinking heap of crud I am in a darkened tunnel That never seems to end The light I see is distant Becoming even non-existent As I seem to sink in deeper Deeper, ever deeper
