Think of Something Light
Think of something light
Mesmerising and bright
Nothing of substance
it's hollow
Example,
that oracle of Apollo
Bountiful, abundant thrill
Painless grinding
run of the mill
Pre-digested, indulgent,
surplus protraction
More to come, this
colourful distraction
Sit, rapt,
comfortably duped
The way some giant spoon
has scooped
Chocolate mint ice cream
from your brain
Like dreams, one always
ending the same
Consumables consumed
till sleepy time
Consumable mosaic's
of the false sublime
