I'm not sure what this is. It didn't explain itself as it spilled into it's home in my notebook; it simply insisted it belonged in there somewhere.
Blackbirds and mourning doves Butterflies and turtledoves Ravens resting peacefully Peacocks strutting pompously Why not go and take a swim? She waits for you there within The water’s warm The wind ne’re blows Though everyone in here well knows It is not safe to place your feet Where seldom any creature goes Shards of mirror glitter round A room where people glory bound Remain to wait: their day’s to come Their time to reign, their time to run Shall they ever have their chance To show their beloved glory dance? Or are they forced to sit and ponder Staring off toward lands non-yonder Sitting ‘till confusion enters Is merriment permitted here? Shall we be fed cheese, wine, and beer? The table’s gone and no one knows Who controls what comes and goes Look and see through lucid cover Clouds roll in and they do hover Look and see that snow now falls It fills the rooms and fills the halls Tapestries now do appear Decanters filled with wine and beer Tables shroud in royal fabric Do you really want to trust it? The land of plenty is where you’ve entered Life and laughter seem its center But beneath its guise of wonderment It’s not all truly heaven-sent These lands that do exist asunder Exist solely to make you wonder Is all that’s seen truly present? Or a result of your puzzlement? Bridges built to link these lands Fabricated by silk hands- Torn apart by the construction Of places built for their destruction This land is not what you imagine Touch and taste of nothing here Taste not of that sweet wine or beer Trust nothing that you see within Faun and deer, bird and mare Even those with golden air Are not as they may then appear They too are what you need to fear Take care when in these lands confused Take time to sit: relax and muse Figure out what’s going on Do you want to wander on?
