Poetry from a Hypnagognic Hallucination

In a hospital today and overheard at a bedside during several hours of mutters and moans and cries came this string of pearls:

Lips like cherries
Hawaii Five-O
ice cream
ice cream
I don't have any pain
...
right now.

All stated clearly with eyes closed
and limbs twitching.
