~Imagination~

~To Jill and her plums

who is
your hatter?
because mine
went mad
if I
didn't have
to jam
a strawberry
I would have
gone with
you

the world
offers itself
to imagination
and a
cup of
sunlit tea

sometimes you
have to
wreak it
in order
to save it

everyone knows
that the
future tastes
like a
freshly picked
apple pungent
plums flower
and fall
cold and full
on the
ground

everyone is
dealing with
something you
just have
to love
people for
who they
are and hope
they love
you back

there is
nothing stronger
then a
normal person
removed from
fake reality
