Whales and Gorillas
In the streets of one harbour town
where the sky is blue
and the flowers keep shifting colours from yellow to golden
There are sharks in the pool and dolphins too
A sailorman tells me that whales will visit soon
I drop my coffee, decline the wine.
I run towards the pool, jump in and swim out to sea, the sharks and dolphins, follow me
I swim into the bull's way and wave
The whale grabs me by his nose I try to ride, but he refuses to let go
He pushes me right out of sea and back to shore
Disappointed I take my backpack and start to walk
I collect my kids from different shelters
Our house is too big and we leave for the hills
Climbing up with a descending sun and purple sea
the flowers here shifts from yellow to golden
A farmer has told me to sit here and wait
Out from the bush comes chimpanzees, gorillas and tasmanian devils
We go to their village
They make crafts like wonders
It is beautiful
I want it
and when I offer some coins
The gorilla laughs
