Shopping Mall Day Dream

The aliens roamed the Johnsonville shopping mall on a cold Thursday morning  The Chinese searched out the students in the food court /Rounded them up at gunpoint /forced them into a book shop/put them all on a culture waltz The South Americans gripped amazed shoppers/salsa danced down the walkways/ tapping feet against the hard floor/ dreaming  of other places/ happy and sad criss crossed their moods  The Dutch played dice at the tables with rattle bags of leather/Rolled cheeses and followed on their bikes/ a colour scape whirl of thick gin saturate  The Arabs darted from shop to shop/ was terror on their minds?/Muddle huddled westerners expecting surely not/But only dark giggle was their lot Then sirens roared and doors burst wide /Team America  on the job/Bullet proof garb weapons at the ready / round up roars / all lying on the floor/These alien aliens restore the store/ God bless……    nothing gives offencemy every deedfree as the mind itselfleaves no trace  @Neil Furby

New Zealand The long white cloud

Stranded in Paradise
A sea surround milk wood
The anchor tug whispers
of another life
