GameScape [dream on] by Laura Doomlaura had a little mare
its face as white as coke
and every time that laura sneezed
the mare was sure to choke
it chased her through emergency
where laura had withdrawn
the balance of her mind to free
her grey space unicorn
in theatre, the surgeon cut
a scene to keep their play
from culminating in a rut
of eunuch horn dismay
"Why does the mare haunt laura so?"
the psychosophists mused
"Oh man, it's just a dream, you know"

Posted by Anita Mac on 08/25/10 at 03:59 PM Awesome... Particularly having just woken up, I think my mind may be more apt to follow your lead. (Let's hope not though.) I do love everything about it though. Clever, clever. |
