Pixie dust sprung from Jimi's eyes
as he rolled in microdot dreams,
purple phased out blades of grass
waved - then heaven screamed ,
We watched smart pebbles line the beach
marching to a psychedelic Sousa band
we know must be playing somewhere,--
discarded notes strewn in the sand.
The pea stones kept amazing time
clicking piezoelectric sound
counting out the midnight sun
as darkness shone around.
So who has seen the sun at midnight?
shining darkly, shadow rays,
playing hooky with the pixies
as the rest just stood n gazed,
The thief he stole our conscience our ego
and our self, left us singin Dylan songs
whose lyrics were his wealth!
The joker saw the sun go down,
a shimmering silhouette, whilst
the thief atop his watchtowe
lit a final cigarette.
He has seen the sun at midnight
shining darkly,, shadow rays,
dancing through the dark
delights of a ruptured world sunset.
