Open My Eyes

Sacrificial LIZARDS drink the painted dwarves
Hearing chirping laughter ^{under darkened house}
    Swim in venom
And Wait . . .
Because the lights are foggy and wet in the desert
Cloaked woman with no face leaps softly from the tortoise back
    and continues swinging from silk curtains with growing
        flowers wrapped around them
Smelling ^{LIKE PANCAKES}, _{THE FLOATING PANCAKES} on which we ride
But so ^HIGH, we must be careful
We come to rest on a tree, and the door _OPENS
So I step out of the cloud onto a _{lava flow}
    And cool off.
Who are these strange _PEOPLE around me?
    The purple ones with lily white hair
Are they afraid of the purple people eater?
    I saw it flying above us, in the dirt
So I hang there, UPSIDE DOWN
And open my eyes.
