A Trip in the Shops
Psychedelic adventures in Suburbia
It began like
Red rough receipts
Eyeballs in the pleats
Her skirt weeps
To form a puddle
Of huddled flamingos
With a chorus of Dingos
All discussing the daily sheets
Global warming and warring
The incoming janitor
Mopping the flooring
All rise from inside the agenda
Like a cobra with a temper
Morphed and Misshapen
Like a hexagonal piece of bacon
The Dingos and Flamingos
Duel and Dance
As if in a trance
Whilst tree referees
Assist to balance
The logical lunges
The numerical shuffles
The precise pirouettes
The trigonomic tumbles
That in all the madness
Form a wonderful order
Neon energy pulsating from the border
The puddles alive
The waters called walter
The pulsing intensifies
Inwards and out
Inwards and out
Now the Dingos and Flamingos
Are joined by multicoloured trout
Leaping and flying
From the surface of the puddle
Trouts with arms wanting to cuddle
A tear in my eye
My brain in a muddle
All i could do was stare and absorb
Much like the mop
The janitors sword
Slaying and sucking whatever is around
Suddenly the sound of his voice
Shatters the profound moment
In which i'm found
With a whoosh and a Flop
The magic was gone
"Sorry mate i've got to clean here, would you mind moving on?"
The lady assistant looks worried
With her skirt now normal and white
Man what a trip
"Excuse me sir, are you feeling alright?"
