A trip of the imagination.

To the swift the victory
Echo the sandpipers
On stilt legs

A day of motion
Waves of frothy emerald sea
Mermaids flying tiger kites
Shooting a thousand fire crackers
Old women sifting sand through stiff fingers
A skinny boy on roller skates smokes weed
And listens to the radio
Planning a trip to the moon

At day break the rain comes in
Cast out from a water hose
The spotted pig squealed horrified
The mama sow was petrified
I also have a long nose

Look just like Pinocchio
I keep on lying
