Home Alone

Alone home, home alone waiting for whiplash and little tops that spin around the axis of planets that go round and round on their own going around a star – wonderful balloons rise up with ribbons for tails Helium for wings that split to become Hydrogen in cylinders that opens out to become and be just a rectangle the height of the side of a rectangle and the length the perimeter of the circle that once was that has opened into a straight like and two circles for eyes open wide in wonder ah wonder oh wonder spilling the beans out of the bags as they walk along away from the Sunday on straight to a Thursday the forty-seventh for good luck and reactance of conductor in a nested loop of an electrical circuit diagram drawn with the medium thick felt-tip of the black pen that took a shower in the rain that rained raisins and fish on unsuspecting lackluster cats that laugh for no reason reading jokes from little pocket-sized books form libraries at the far ends of towns where are trees that grow juice balloons when gulls fly screaming loudly mimicking guitar and horn sounds with their mouths chewing on chocolates and jelly-bears and jelly-elephants with long trunks longer than speeding trains sowing seeds of trains to grow train trees that are trained to grow more trains and steam engines that go coo-coo-coo to stop at stations right after level-crossings smoking cigarettes standing next to shrubs of cacti feeling afraid of needles and thorns getting ready to sew buttons on pink fairy gowns
