What was seen
Could never be
Unseen,
It melted the matter in his eyes,
His senses and the
Invisible sky,
Together in a cascade of
Perpetual blue,
Which was layered across the heavens,
Like thick lacquer
By the handy orange airplanes,
And the ghostly kites that hovered,
Just above the tanned hides of the greasy masses
And the
Fortunate
Fortunes,
Buried long ago under
Scores of empty sea-shells.
Laying there,
On a towel that
Barely
Even
Survives
The Dryer.
Sand whipped across his back,
But
Not stinging
Like
Sand should.
Instead,
Alleviating itches
He would be
Having
Ten years in the future,
With a touch like a
Mermaids tail.
And for another moment,
He wasn’t entirely sure
This experience,
Was courtesy of the usually bashful breeze.
Or if,
Perhaps,
His very own
Ions and electrons,
Were being swept up into some galactic stir-fry,
(With plenty of pearls, among other ingredients)
By a passing white cloud,
Wearing an
Apparently,
Inconspicuous
Chefs hat.
