falling asleep poem


by dog e relaford



there is something wrong with my brain
it is hard to explain
the clown eats a pistachio ice cream cone
but his yellow dog has no bone

the white dog outside the window
takes it easy and slow
he has as much time as the sphinx
as the raindrops go plink plink plink

the dishes are piled in the sink
the cook needs another quick drink
the clown is not feeling himself
and puts his red nose back on the shalf

on this spot long ago
a sabre tooth tiger walked in the snow
a dinosaur came in from the cold
and the world was already old
