Miracles & Wonders

 

Adventure-free, Odysseus

Amusement Park. The sirens sing

To la-di-da policemen cars

Surveilling everything in sight.

The vendors have been turned to swine,

And dressed in kale and collard greens,

A one-eyed guide eats hot dogs whole.

A madman in a sandwich board

Proclaims an epic fail, predicts

The fall of toys, a wooden hearse

To ferry us to Neverland.

The line advances one by one,

Extended to the violet hills,

Towering braggadocio.
