Trip

Written in 2007. Surrealism, ftw.

 

Taking flight over the earth

Wandering through the fields of blue
And skies of green

Diving below the surface

To delightful clouds of red

 

Colour sours the world

Bringing back the memories of lost

Inherent in that of found

Swirling about
In a sea of oranges and mangos

 

Tossed to and fro

From wave to tree branch

Walking the plank

To plunge into the quicksand

Of canvas

 

Encouraging life from firebrands

Emitting smoke

Little figures dancing upon the haze
Swinging round and round

Throughout eternity

 

Sweet lament forlorn

On and through the ages
Over the heights and below the depths

Swishing around the sifter

Fragrance induced
