In the room of books,
I flipped the pages like I was touching a butterfly’s wings.
In the room of tiredness,
I lied lazily on the bored bed
and the blanket floated to my sleepy body.
In the room of balls,
basketballs flipped furiously into my raging face.
In the room of success,
whenever a medal was presented, a cheer was heard
and losers groaned.
In the room of bells,
My speech came out as chimes.
In the room of wealth,
money was as thin as staples
and my hands turned into diamonds.
My tiredness is made from-
an energetic little brother, waking you up on a rainy weekend,
a pillow dozing off into dreamworld,
the pages left of your homework book, demanding you to finish every single page,
a boring day with nothing to do,
and the comfy duvet with me already in it.
I found it-
laying in the pages of my favourite fictional fantasy story book,
relaxing on a deckchair with a masseuse giving you a satisfying massage,
Reading a whole dictionary,
Dancing slowly to the waltz,
Where ponies prance around with cuddly bunnies on their backs.
This tiredness can-
Bore the energetic,
Turn the active athletes into fat frogs,
wheeze out breath from busy business people,
silence the homeless’ pleads
in an uncomfortable cage,
and let out contagious yawns,
till it is a speck of dust,
travelling the world.
If I had lost this tiredness-
even the poor would sparkle…
The moon is
like a glistening, silver football,
as bright as LED light glowing in my bedroom.
A tree is
as crooked as a witch’s twig-like finger,
like a mimic octopus’ tentacles swaying.
The moon is
as shiny as a gold medal,
like a spotlight shining happily.
The Mediterranean Sea is
like a cornflower coloured sapphire,
as clear as a newly washed window.
The moon is
as sneaky as the suspicious smile of a Cheshire Cat watching Alice in her crazy dreams,
like a banana in the galactic cities.

She had fingernails of red, autumn leaves falling and crunching.

whistling as she spoke.

squeezing blood out of their bodies.
I met a woman called Flamingo,
She walked fabulously like she was on a ******* on her twig legs.
Her long, luxurious neck leaned forwards and touched the ground with her beak.
I met a man called Rabbit,
He nibbled a cunning carrot like Bugs Bunny,
hopping hilariously like an African kangaroo.
I met a woman called Labrador,
with colourful eyes spinning hyptnotisingly.
When he spoke, he barked with a rough voice.
