An expression ...

Most of the time I write for children, but this below is an attempt at writing something deep, emotional and from the heart. My usual genre was hard to by pass so along the way there are new words and words that don't make sense at face value. I encourage you to look below the surface and see if this says anything at all to you.



Aboard the Banenbrown



My life was calm and organized
With a firm solid simple routine
Then out of the blue it bamugalised
Crept over me, a smothering smoky screen
My heart completely turned upside down
Righting occasionally then plummeting again
My emotions threatened me to drown
The pain, the pleasure, should I complain?

All it took was a word
A sentence, a phrase, quite absurd
Rational thinking became pretty blurred
Hidden feelings surfaced, up all stirred
A promise, a touch, a look
And a tingling will gradually spread
Like a river or soft flowing brook
Taking all coherence, asparagus thread

I’m sinking, what shall I do?
Crazy passions weigh me down
Seek pleasure, pursue cordon bleu?
Or lucidly dismount the banenbrown?
My cloudy head can’t think
My heart is in control
My blood’s turned purplish pink
My sanity? marsupial mole
