butterflies flight broke...
living room’s filled with stale smoke
pink elephants would choke...

There was a fancy snake from Paris, France
Who had a thing for lacy underpants
  He tried to put some on
  But they only slid down
They were designed for cute, pink elephants


There once was a rattler from Nairobi
Who found himself in Arizona's Gobi
  When he saw a rocket ship
  He thought he'd take a long trip
Aboard spacecraft "Obi wan-Kenobi"...

Intoxicated pinkish elephants

electrified in splendiferous drunkenness

surmised surrealistic playgrounds

of surround sound echoing laughter &

expansivly lit hot air balloons

merrily drifting to embrace star-dusted

skies' kaleidoscopic enchantment

ever wonder, 

do intoxicated pink elephants hallucinate

 the same as our own alcoholic delirium...

bleached memories
lingering in the air
over Christmas dinner

Pretended forgiveness
making beef and noodles tougher
to digest

Pink elephants in the room
unnoticed and untouched
another year

familiar non-feeling feelings
Christmas 
masquerading
as
truth

hidden under
fake
laughter

I sat down and ordered a drink
She walked in dressed in pink
As I looked over I gave her a wink

Little did I know I was laying on the floor 
Drunk as a skunk now seeing a monk
Pink elephants I did see

Boy, I sure had to pee
I lifted myself up from the floor
Next thing I knew they were,

Escorting me out the door
