Restless
beneath a haze
  colourless, layers
upon layers of
    figure eight paths
         all leading in this case,
to Boulevards
   of fame

to Cali-for-NI-A
the world swarms
with the excitement
of bees
buzzing toward  
         Tinsel honey pots
of downtown LA
   decorated with stars golden,
over strips of sunset that
echo voices
    of the reknown

a distraction,
  set for this city
of angel's,
where fantasy
becomes reality and
  reality hits that plush
red carpet
   flat on it's face

yes Andreas,
  beneath the dreamers
of platinum blonde and
metallic hues
    he trembles the
precious element
        of Hollywood

silky surface of the Severn...
it was a famously difficult
river with fierce tides..."

Hey, were you in LA...and if so, why didn't you tell me...there is tinsel here..for sure, but also real sad, dreamy, loving, sweet tempestuous life.

Awesome poem M!

You capture the images so well - it feels as if I have experienced LA after reading this. Well done and welcome home.
