Daily Poem #4: The Lakeside Cafe

Walking through a busy mall
Unrecognizable forms of Deja Vu
Technology
People
Leaving the obnoxious crowd
Stumbling down a long dock
Reaching the lakeside cafe
A blue floral design
Colors; a blur
Shapes; a blur
Staggering somewhere between light and dark
Returning to reality

-Trevor:)

I used the NaPoWriMo.net prompt for today, about a dream. This was a hard one, since most of my dreams are crazy random and wouldn't fit in any form of poetry (ha!). If this one seems strange and mysterious to you, don't worry, I don't understand it either. However your brain perceives it is probably pretty accurate.

I'm sorry for the delay in writing. Enjoy! When tomorrow comes I expect dread I will have the 'glums' I won't leave my bed It will rain It will pour I'll be stuck in vain Furthermore I doubt I'll have fun I just can't imagine Doing anything fun My birthday, but I stay IN No party!

Outside the garage door there is a sound An obscure type of music The whine of a hound Outside the garage door there is a smell The aroma of barbecue Brisket, I can tell Outside the garage door there is a taste The flavor of good times I run to, make haste Inside the garage door there is a voice I know I can follow if If that be my choice The whine of the hound The smell of sweet brisket The flavor of good times Draw me away from that voice But inside the garage door I sense sorrow An uncomfortable burden The woes of tomorrow Outside the garage door, I now return To the hound, and the friends They are hard to discern They have changed ever so slightly Outside the garage door there is a sound The hound running by Catching a bone in one bound Outside the garage door there is a smell A bland aroma Chicken, I can tell Outside the garage door there is a taste The flavor of sour company But I don't make haste But...
