Exploding Windmills

Exploding Windmills So fragile in its equestrian gait The tippy toe of stealth Loves to tread so softly Behind In tennis shoes With velvet claws Dreamers are destroyed By fact These prison smiles With tiles of teeth Deride the childish fantasy Bludgeon at un-illuminated reality Just to dangle their mechanical Bag of tricks Dreamers are destroyed By fact Stuff of nonsense Imagery of bright eyes Of painted books And scribbled brush strokes Pillow fairy tales And windmills Dreamers are destroyed By fact Sweet girly dresses And boyish supermen Plastic sunglasses broken In the enthusiasm Of slapping back in To The bright day too hot To consider enchanting Too fastidiously busy To stop marketing Disconsolate in its attitude To pay attention to a giggle Dreamers are destroyed By fact
