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
