Comic poem about preferring fantasy to real life.
I saw an angel yesterday.
He gave me such a smile.
‘Twas right behind the frozen food, and in the yogurt aisle…
I leaned in for a Mullerice,
And brushed against his wing.
It made my usual shopping trip, a quite eventful thing!
I saw a tiger yesterday,
just roaming on the bus.
I’m really quite surprised that people didn’t make more fuss.
He sauntered up to me and roared.
(A most alarming sound).
So I gave him to the driver to put in the ‘lost and found’.
I saw a dragon yesterday,
when I was in the bar.
I know it’s called ‘The George’, but that is SURELY going too far!
I thought I’d take a sword,
and plunge it in that pesky blighter.
But kept him as a pet instead, (and a useful cigarette lighter)
I saw myself just yesterday,
in the mirror on the wall.
Dressed in exotic finery, to grace the poshest ball!
So off we all went in the car,
the angel, the tiger, and me,
(and not forgetting the dragon of course, as I’d got my fags with me!).
I saw my lover yesterday,
but he just walked on by.
I’m only glad he didn’t turn around to see me cry.
For though my world of fantasy,
might raise some funny looks.
I’d rather be there ANY day, ‘cos reality just SUCKS!!
