god, angels, and a blue kangaroo

 

i was kidding

when i asked if you saw

a blue kangaroo

 

and was surprised when you said yes

and sent a photo

 

i hate to tell you

but it was not blue

 

~

 

you said i was drunk

and leaned on your shoulder   and said

you bought a cheap dress

 

i don't think 

that ever happened

 

~

 

you sent more photos

of an open air market   stalls of fresh fruit

and veggies   all colorful

 

and you smiling

and your friends smiling   and it was sunny

and cheery

 

i could see that   and believe it

 

~

 

but maybe you did see a blue kangaroo

and maybe i did as you said

 

maybe i lack faith

It is all about faith. We see what we see. What our minds describe to us. Even when drunk. I enjoyed this pony.

I remember talking a lot of shit when I was drunk as I remember a friend who always believed me. I don't talk to him anymore. I miss him.

I love this. Of course there are blue kangaroos if you believe in them. Sunny markets and smiling faces can be depressing when you are in cold dark places. Love is fun. Enjoy. A cheap dress, yes.
