Paradise Lost

Terania Creek

how many times
have I crossed that log
to protestor falls
swimming in the heart
of alternate utopia
rainforest hippy land
stunningly beautiful

if i had've been
in my hermit phase
it might have worked out
but the overwhelming
pressure to adhere to an ideology
the rejection of any life style or thought
different to the prevailing
counter cultural mores
made it  just another type of conformity
dressed up in beads and thai dye florals
fascism in variegated shades of bliss

terania creek
dreams drift in dope 
paradise lost
