Everything is okay, really!

Everything is okay, really!

A Poem by andrew mitchell

The earth decides
to go flat,
a shadow spooked
walks only
in the light,
thoughts stampede
the cranial chamber,
to attend
a museum of verses sale,
on the grammar trail
of punctuation
commas and full-stops
go on strike
as the twelve
on the clock
goes missing,
outside clouds gather
accumulating to nothing,
the man in the moon
does a runner,
the sun too tired
doesn't show up,
and the stars shine
as strobe lights
leave a Morse code message,
all the while
the looking glass mirror
becomes a hearing aid.
However don't despair,
all is well,
the chaos theory
becomes orderly.

as a long standing proponent of chaos theory .. my head is spinning because I'm imagining the sound of huge old trees falling all around me and there are none to be seen for yards .. I know what I mean anyway ..

Haha thanks Nev :)))))))))))
Could be.. who knows! Seems heaven and hell are rebelling at present. Your upside downing and arounding reads almost sane, here, Andrew.. and reading a second time, certain phrases are near
plausible.

' .. commas and full-stops - go on strike - as the twelve - on the clock ' goes missing, '

If read times over, is controlled yet feverish. possibility being debated before sentence. The chaos theory still hanging by the seat of its pants. Perhaps.
