Nebulous streams, clouding my brain Vapor trail dreams, from paper airplanes Cherry red glow, watch with no chain Ribbons and bows, tied to the flames Anchors on strings, hanging from sails Bells that don't ring, throw down the pail Falling through cracks, greased by the sale Hearts made of wax, sent through the mail Waterfall wishes on stars with no swings Broken blue dishes stuck to the king Photos with glitches on invisible wings Temptation itches on all living things December 11 2016 in your head contest

Loved the rhymes this is a classic 60's acid trip brain buster. Used to work with a guy in the seventies, thought he was Robert Plant and talked like this all the time, what a trip!! Your picture is quite apt for the write.A7

Well, I'm a color junkie as well as a brain-cell rearrangement junkie (no drugs though), so this is just spectacular! Makes my little boy heart sing and my big boy brain sail on electric-koolaid-acid planes. Very fun and screamingly creative Daniel! Enjoyed a buncha ~ john

Kind of takes me back to the late 60, early 70s when the world seemed in this fashion and everything was vibrantly colored, day glo and black lights that seemed to take up residence in the mind. Very creative and thought swirling Daniel.

OH MY GOSH - the lyrics, the imagery - they are awesomely poetic. I guess the last line defines the poems meaning??, but don't even care if it has one or is simply mis-defined by me because I'm in love with the wording in each stanza. They are top notch WOWs! I'm in love with your lines, Daniel! oh no ... CayCay (this would work on contest about where one's mind goes, something like that)
