The Forest Apr 2013
the soft light
made
by the jingle jangle of chandeliers
is hiding the fact
that the crystals are plastic
not glass

the red carpeted halls in rich silver
are synthetic
and painted


the people who sing
are so obviously
pre-recorded
lip-singers

..that the sound is ugly



the majestic
queen
wears a great crown

made of tin and rocky road



and as the jester steps down
with his grin made of real malice

the beauty you cast
is the reason
why everything

else

looks


...fake
...no-one in particular
  -you joker

the Hot Chocolate's  steaming on the window

   it's a misty moody day

flying birds feathered frenzy flapping fever rain drop fly
   ...forward


...

reflection
on the steamed glass

reflecting

remembering the conversations by the random visitors to the cafe

in their coats and scarves and goosebumps



green eyes
coats

and Sherlock's





and then draw a face in the steam on the window in the cafe in the town
under the sparkly hidden stars

...
...
......and a choc moustache

hole

in a silly
wood

in a spock inventor
planet

in a spiffingly spotty
universe

there lived a
space alien

...his name was Bob
and he liked haloumi


...he liked observing
humans
serving haloumi
on a plate
with crackers
in their sooty restaurant

under the sparkly stars




...
one day he changed his name to Greg
