Mules and Unicorns


These glittery rainbows
we chase perpetually

All the tarnished yellow brick roads
on our one way journey into the ground

Junkie dreamers be we...

Unable to see
the light transparency

Never quite thinking things fully through

What would we ever do
if we ever caught 
the fantasies we sought?

Dreamers dream do they not?

Though they can never
fully reside
in the real world
where harsh reality
chews up and spits out
badly mangled unicorns
and slices their colorful carcasses
into deliciously bitter steaks 
to be sold on E-Bay for 90 cents a pound
