I agree with the sick theory... coughing, spitting, dreamlessness possibly describing a lack of sleep which one has when sick.

I think that this poem is about being sick. Dreamlessness often accompanies sickness, as obviously the coughing does too. He makes the coughing seem more there by writing it as "ccocoucougcoughcoughing".
