The clock on the wall
is a fake, I'm sure
the hole in the hall
has fabricated fur
the fly on the ceiling
has left too soon
the fridge is peeling
the man in the moon
the toaster charged
the oven quit
the blender says,
"you're full of it!"
the coffee machine
covered its eyes
the fork's obscene
the tea pot tries
The table flatly
says it won't
the hutch is yellow
and it says, "Don't!"
the bread box blows
butter tears
the counter shows
its knifing fears
my kitchen thinks
that it's alive
that's why I drinks
from noon to five
The listeners were listening
ReplyDeleteMaking sense as they could
Perhaps not really,
But making sense as they should
Their questions were asked
Or not, even tho bid
Their honest concerns
Often were hid
An important debate
All looking for clues
But occasionally lost
Simply staring at their shoes
Some stayed til the end
Trying to figure it out
Others said I'm good
I'll see you about
Well said. I was lost the entire evening.
