Cardboard Boxed

xyz

My world, my secret drey
Where I enter to dream,
Every time but I check in
I step on a watery stream,
I take care not to step
Yet, it draws me in,
My soar feet all wet
Healed by circling depths
Oh! so keen,

My cardboard life
Damp and dim
Peeling plasters quick,
Burnt in blue, often un-clued
The fragrant breeze wafts in,
Pops open the can, adding
Some bubbles to the ‘-ly’
Denuding iron-clad irony
Now, that’s serendipity!
It swivels the tresses, veiling
the face, runs amok in glee,
Escapes from the exit unlocked
Can’t recall when I lost my keys….

I travel the starry starry night
Painted the maestro’s way,
Foot atop that scummy earth — 
You often come to stay,
Anxious breath, sceptic gaze,
Leaving the room astray,
A child’s soul, ingenious mould
Calls for caring ways,
Personal, intimate, romantic gigs
Drum the quixotic bones,
They walk with you, catches the tune
of dissonant, urban sways,

I reach out for Gogh the Vincent
For stars in the azure to click,
The skies so vastly apart
Maybe, smog doing the trick,
What else to be touched upon
Memory running the tread,
Whistling kettle, fuming spout
Reveal an ordinary thread,

Coffee beans, noisy grind,
Sieving emotions in mess,
Know distillation arduous, thoughts
moving through quirky base,
Gogh growing Pino’s nose
Gibberish at it’s best
Sniffing storm in the mug —

Here, Pinocchio rests his case!
