1864 - When The Brain Runs Free

Angela Weston's post to AI Art Image Hub on Facebook.

dVerse has the prompt "Dream Interpretations".

My first rondeau for a while but seemed the ideal form for a dream.


When Brains Run Free

When brains run free strange things occur
I watch them pass, as a flaneur,
Marvelling at all the things I see—
Butterflies who are sipping tea,
A camel dressed as a chauffeur,
Buildings that melt and socks that purr,
An elephant climbing up a fir…
Things appear that should not really be
When brains run free.

Whistling past in a phantom blur;
Some just once while others recur:
My brain doodles with wicked glee—
What it means is lost on me.
What’s real or not rarely concur
When brains run free.
