PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Those lysergic salad day 

are long, long gone

but the memories

and delusions persist

The chaos and madness

that permeated those days

ecstatically dancing

in Fairmount Park;

perfect silhouettes 

atop the bleachers of the Greek

melting into paintings

by Dali & Van Gogh

& scribbling mad notes

with crayons and markers

on brick walls and cardboard boxes

The perimeters expanded and contracted

like the effortless breathing

of a Zen Yoga guru

and we nearly dashed

over the precipice

The tie dyed colours ble

and discordant sounds

eventually found harmony.

I’d like to think

a little wisdom was attained

but that remains to be seen.
