Caught up in the cosmic stream

Where children’s imaginations play

And comic book characters dream

And visions converge into curvatures

To begin each day anew.

 

Here Dorothy soars high over her rainbow

And E.T. flies straight through the moon

And the sun rises each day as an alien orb

While the dish elopes with the spoon.

 

And the baby cries cause the spoon’s gone

And finds succor in sucking instead

As mommy-genius devotes her entire life

perfecting Mr. Potato’s head.

 

And the Green Lantern meets up with Diogenes

As he’s looking for one honest man.

And Tinkerbell teases poor Capt. Hook

by acting like a slut who is damned.

 

And sailors wafting aimless on oddyseys

Are taken captive by Sirens at sea.

And Lost Worlds are adrift beyond remorse

As they’re embraced by eternity.

 

Here I lay my head down gently

Upon a sacrificial stone in a ruin

And see virgins led to deflowering beds

For the Hero who will join the gods soon.

 

And the raised sword lusters brightly in sunlight

Just before the swift strike on that stone.

And the virgins deflowered and laying in bed

Have finally learned how to moan.

 

And the little dog laughs to see such a sight!
