Poem -
Pastels and Daydreams
The Silk Coffin's by
Resolve
the inactive nature in myself
division and random acceleration
Tawdry at best
The rank and file
The photogenic few
Tea drinking at the Ritz
Hollywood and Vine with blood stains
All in the stretch limosene
Not a funeral procession yet
Celebration of a way of life
I dare not approach the dreamer
Inside my nightmare
World wars come and go leaving
The changing fashion in tow
Do not be deceived by the peacrmongers.
To whom bombs sell lipsticks
And the lilies. Creep around the
Aging fence in glory

This has got me smiling ear to ear. I love this work, Laraine. Stunningly clever. Get a sense of the unseeable apocalypse as if written from a narrators perspective. Super unique and worth a pin. I hope you are well my friend.
