The Answer's A lemming

There are those who think the masses
are like a legion of lemmings 
doing a death march into the sea
(actually a river)
but suicidal lemmings are a myth
created by none other than Walt Disney
in Alberta, Canada where
(no lemmings live)
the 1958 film 'White Wilderness' was made
and the sordid scandalous scene
by the filmmakers was staged
spinning turntables were constructed
all covered

Fire Up the Dragon

three quintains

Husband made an announcement yesterday at five.
"I'm NOT going to Disney next week on Spring Break.
Back problems do not mix with that long twelve-hour drive,
walking theme parks for four days - another mistake."
My tail is draggin'; I can't fire up this dragon.

Oldest son is delighted, because his girlfriend
is invited to take my place, etcetera.
Younger

Premium MemberThe Fabulous World of Walt Disney

his name's been on every child's lips
in whirls of fantasy, whimsy, slips and trips
synonymous with awe and wonder
we all grew up with the machinations
of Disney's wild and vivid imagination
a man with the grandest of vision
beautifully executed with precision

Premium MemberWhen You Wish Upon A Star

(“Under A Swirling Sky”, 2013, original pen & ink and acrylic)

When You Wish Upon A Star

When you wish upon a star
All the other stars watch and listen.

And in the silence
As your mind moves
They turn to stare.

The dance then shifts and turns
Adjusting to the ripple
Your little effort brings.

And opening there,
In the space above,
The space 
Where wishes

Premium Memberonstage, i want to turn to the band and say 'take me home, daddy'

it would be a last request, before the gallows
like baloo sings it 
i'm being led there, the narrow path between the
faces of the people
my hands tied behind my back
the rope taut against the skin
and i'm going,
de-zop-ba-ronie
hap-da-dee-ba-lat
da-dat-dat-non
hey, a-baby-dot-doo
zaba-doo-doo-day-doo-bop
doo-boo-doo-day, ze-bonz
za-bop-bop-bobby  

we arrive
i turn to the hooded executioner.
'take me home, daddy.'

But how we choose to grow old is.

Once upon my time

Once upon a December we were friends.
Once upon a cold night holding onto a time we knew someday would end.
A whole new world we’ll never see. 
You're stuck drowning under the sea, after letting go of my hand because you wanted to be free.
Lost in the jungle like a lost little boy.
Running around like a

Disney Lies

All of our lives were fed Disney lies about how perfect the world is
Then the day comes one we're forced to breathe deep the darkness that envelopes our soul
We spend so much time being conformists and blind til our death finally sneaks from behind
He's come to reap all the secrets we keep while he stares
