my little piece of heaven

rocks jutting out of odd places in the ground

like unnecessary stepping stones

on a river of solid dirt

 

twisted, grey Tim Burton trees

enclosing my footsteps

in shade

 

wet, dirty leaves

crunching feebly

under faded blue canvas shoes

with ragged shoelaces

 

faceless, nameless birds lurking in shadow

squawking their cacophonous songs

 

a beautiful, ugly masterpiece

my own little piece of heaven

my own little private dystopia
