Lunatic Shuffle by Ken Allan Dronsfield

By Raja's Insight on July 24, 2019 • ( 0 )

Thin mummified

trembling bent fingers

resembling razor

sharp raptor talons.

Grasp the burial shovel

with a fervent evil malice.

Reasoned breezes or

teasing chaotic tempests.

Dance on a marshmallow

in a clouded pink fantasy.

Sipping sweet tea with

a lemonade pouted grin.

My jello lunch reeks but a

Thorazine high greets me;

now painting the lawn in

a mixed shaded scheme.

Silver pleated brushes

of bleach blond hair.

Surfing into the fog as

my torch is now hushed.

My friend tried to commit

larceny of my frenzied soul.

I hear his cries for mercy

from the freshly dug grave;

behind the lofty asylum

by the tennis courts where

we loved to sit and watch the

staff relaxing and playing there.

I’m floating over the azure bay

driving a ’57 Chevy Nomad

waltzing into a riotous decade

whilst in a Prozac lunatic shuffle.
