The second of my collections of poems written for "Express It In Eight."
As usual these days, I choose blog format because it offers more space for the work.

Otherworld

In the land of peppermint streams
where the buffalo perch in the well
the trees are hung with American dreams
and the day begins with a bell.

Bert the magic dragon sings
like some indignant loon
and overhead the skies do swing
round the sun, a bright balloon.


Line count: 8

For Express It In Eight, 07.23.24
Prompt: Video of the sun falling from the sky.
