What Are The Clouds Sitting On
What are the clouds sitting on?
Carved castles
Powerful shapes and delicate dollops
But clouds are flat on the bottom.
The clouds are flat on the bottom.
They are like my great, great, great wrinkly old aunt Mildred.
They must be sitting
On an invisible something.
A divide in atmospheric pressure?
A mile-high, sky-top of our own human smog?
Or the wall that the dragons fly above
(But we cannot see them through this blinding shield)
The clouds are sitting on top of
Something invisible.
What a lucky something,
What a lucky us.
Thank you for holding up the clouds.
