cacophony.

cacophony.

A Poem by jenniewren (J.W. Bouwman)
"

i swear to you i don't drop acid...

"
she shuddershivers and the earth quakes
thinks of the oceans and the rivers and the birthdates
dreaming long of the sleepy moles 
that fritter 'mongst the hemlocks 
that she spins around her finger like wedding songs that linger 
in her psyche

and 
oh oh oh oh oh 
let's get married...

she licks her lips and the icebergs all take note
borne on the limbs of the weary cuttlefish homes 
who hide 'mongst fronds that glimmer and flow
while entangled in knots she's long quite forgot 
to brush out

and 
oh oh oh oh oh 
let's get married...

and the world's dream is opened and spread out
she gasps and she quotes and dreams of the loud shout
shot wide from the lungs of the minuscule man who
unaware of her plans has demanded what he sees
as his due

and 
oh oh oh oh oh 
let's get married...

Your head may hurt, but this whirlwind of surrealism feel so good. These are not the thoughts of an acid tripper. These are the images of a deep thinker. Fabulous.
