Paloma P Poet Imagism

Drunken Pink Elephants Allegory

Intoxicated pinkish elephants

electrified in splendiferous drunkenness

surmised surrealistic playgrounds

of surround sound echoing laughter &

expansivly lit hot air balloons

merrily drifting to embrace star-dusted

skies' kaleidoscopic enchantment

ever wonder, 

do intoxicated pink elephants hallucinate

 the same as our own alcoholic delirium

Andrea Dietrich October 24, 2016 at 5:36 PM oh how fun, having our own delusions having hallucinations of their own!! Very creative and descriptive, Paloma

Nette Onclaud October 24, 2016 at 10:26 AM fantasy in a fun mode, paloma... you imagination is on a roll, yes!..huggs

Daniel Turner October 24, 2016 at 9:01 AM I'm certain they see pink people and ask the same questions about us:) Be careful, Paloma. Your funny bone is exposed:)

Chris Green October 24, 2016 at 8:53 AM One question, why are drunk elephants always pink? That sounds gender specific to me and I'm sure there are just as many blue drunken elephants hanging from chandeliers as there are pink. :) This was funny Paloma, your humor brings many colors to this site.

Jan Allison October 24, 2016 at 5:44 AM Great humour Paloma :-) can you imagine having to deal with a drunken elephant lol lol ...makes me so glad I am almost tea total:-) hugs Jan xx Paloma P October 24, 2016 at 7:50 AM Once in a while, my funny bone emerges. I highly doubt pink elephants are teetotalers. :) Cheers Jan!

Probir Gupta October 24, 2016 at 5:21 AM Very good figures and images ... colours of plurality in interpretation ... Paloma P October 24, 2016 at 5:29 AM Thanks very much Probir, that's what happens when you lose your grip.

Joseph P. DiMino October 24, 2016 at 5:13 AM Yes! Some of my best friends are intoxicated elephants. But this is par for a Kaleidoscope mind:) Love it! Paloma P October 24, 2016 at 5:28 AM I'll drink to that Joe, cheers! :) Ha ha you've got some very weird friends buddy.

White Wolf October 24, 2016 at 4:52 AM AH, I'm still grinning from ear to ear. Ha, this is the question! Do they? I've got a $50 that says yes. Love it. Paloma P October 24, 2016 at 4:55 AM I won't bet against that, just stay out of their way! ;) Thanks Rick.
