lost in utopia

The lizard has lost its manners and is pulling a grumpy scowl across its face

The blue flower strays lackadaisically in the wind

Tall towers stroke the sky

We’ve lost our minds but we haven’t yet lost the universe

A half formed thought streaks across the sky in plaid letters

What do the letters say?

We don’t know.

We’ve lost our language and misplaced all our punctuation.

We flow through abstract sequences, colors bleeding into other colors.

Inanimate objects tell us what to think

Until…

We finally hit our head

feel our own blood run down our forehead

and wake up.
