Daydreaming

Lying in my beach bed,
alone in thought,
as wave axes cut at the shore,
carving it to their whim,

Looking at my sandcastle
with boarded windows,
as knights on surfboards
storm the gates,
and horses in wetsuits
carrying lances
ransack and pillage it,
then set my sand castle aflame.

     Soldiers run out
     of the inferno,
     as a red dragon
     blows bubbles,
     that engulf us all
     and carry us
     far, far away
     Leaving us 
     in a land
     called Honalee.
