Delirium - Cherrystones

Delirium - Cherrystones
This is a picture from Neil Gaiman's Sandman Graphic Novels, featuring the Endless family member Delirium, who I definitely identify with a lot of the time.

A silly poem I wrote a few years ago.



I went to feed the ducks one day
Upon Hanley Park Lake
And as I walked towards the ducks
I saw a T-bone steak


I wondered why it just lay there
And so I asked it how, it got there
But it's answer was,
"I used to be a cow"


I said, "Oh, you can speak!"
And then, "How did that come to be?"
But then it's only answer was, 
"I want to be a tree!"


I fetched my spade and dug a hole
Not deep, twelve inches round
And then I took the T-bone steak
And placed it in the ground


Now when I go to feed the ducks
If I'm feeling hungry
I go and pick prime cuts of beef
From my special T-bone tree!
