REM World

Walking through scenes.
Upside-down
topsy turvy world,
where lovers
are not who they should be.

I know you…
the face is different,
but it’s still you.

Batman’s enemies
and their crooked hideouts!
That’s what it looks like.
Planes of perception
turned 45 degree angles
and a glass of water
pours to the ceiling.

Who’s home is this?
Wait
I know it’s your home
but who are you?

Okay, I’ve had enough.
Thank God for the alarm.

Jonas sounds like a weird dream, indeed thanks for alarm clocks...only sometimes. Though the thing I hate is when you want to wake up but are unable to...that is really frightening. anyway ranting here. A great poem, much enjoyed.

Thanks Brian : )

A very strange dream, but then, they usually are. LOL!
