A Map to Craziville

[For @smellyfingers]

So I was just pottering along my path,
When suddenly I came across a man in a bath,
He said to me,
"The words are a tree,
And that humming is not a bee,
But the flowers singing, you see,"

This was quite strange in my universe,
So told him I don't want to converse,
But on he went, babbling about,
How the sky was water and he was a trout,
I found that up my path I couldn't reverse,
I told him, "You're making my world a little perverse!"

He pulled out a soggy scroll,
From some bubbles below,
"This is your map,"
He said, giving it a clap,
"A gift I give to only you,
To help see the Craziville rule."

I stared down at my path to come,
Saw the person I would become,
How twisting paths and hidden falls,
Heartbreaks, lies and fake dolls,
I saw each place I would be tripped,
And how one day I'd fall into my crypt.

I did not cry, I did not laugh,
But I tore it all and ripped up my path,
With an angry shout I felt quite tranquil,
Knowing my path and rejecting Craziville.

Off I began,
Off I now ran,
No path, no trips, no labels or hits,
Just running though my open,
personal land of Craziness.

Backwards Off The Edge

I never realised there was a edge Until I fell backwards, falling past the earth. A sea of blue and a world of green, A hand reached out and grabbed me. Hauling me passed the stars.

Shape Shifting

I returned to the start on this four cornered square. Wondering why and how did I get back here. Surely it should be a circle as I look down the line.

Butterfly Flutter-by

This little butterfly is ready to be set free. To be the butterfly she ought to be. To see the things a butterfly ought to see. To explore the world and all it's glory.

At The Top

There was a tall tower, Deep in the woods, Red and green bricks, Often misunderstood, Always a crowd gathers, So many stand around, Faces turned up to the top, Looking up from the ground, Some throw...

The Sea Of Possibilities

I sail across the sea. In my silver sailing boat. Knowing I can be. Whatever as I float. I see amazing images. Appear before my eyes. A little bit of synergy. To weave as I go by.

Taking A Dive

I'm standing on the high board. The board is made of choice. It's here I'll consider my options. Before I take my plunge and chosen course. I'm standing at the edge. My toes curl round the end.

Sailing

Confusion, I'm alone in a boat, floating on the open sea. My only possessions are a map of endless paths and a compass. The needle always turns north But the direction of north changes.

Free Falling

Goodbye every moment, That was full of negativity, From now on, I am dancing, To the endless beat of gravity.
