Colorful Reality
While travelling along a licorice road,
I found myself floating in a butterscotch
ripple sundae,
with oreo cookies
on the side.
It was a magical journey
filled with gooey caramel,
marsh mellows,
almonds,
and a spoonful
of chocolate sprinkles.
All that was missing
was a full blueberry moon
rolling across a country field
filled with wild red,
purple
and yellow zephyrs.
As these colors blew,
and thunder roared,
I found myself staring
at the limp Afghani girl,
draped over her father’s arms;
one of the many victims of a
red, white, blue bomb,
dropped silently from
a whispering drone.
Closing my eyes,
I downed another whiskey neat.
