Terrible lies

Terrible lies

A Poem by Mark
"

for a contest

"
Holgraphic paint chips brown and fucia
Attractive like iron chips on vanilla paper
swirl in student eyes, the lies of subliminal physics
change the apathetic into flamingo dances;
attractive fiscal pond dwellers, 
loving on one foot.

Lol, fiscal pond dwellers, I know a few of those, and they ain't flamingos either! Love 'loving on one foot', it's not SO bad. ;-)

Well shoot. Might have to try harder. Lol thanks
I've always been fascinated with Flamingos...one of those creatures that you look at and it just doesn't seem as though they should be able to stand, let alone walk, run or flap their wings. This was an interesting piece; certainly filled with great language and imagery.
