Stranger in a strange world

 

A stranger in a strange world
Where nothing seems like what it seems to be

Trying to steer a boat in the desert
A boat that has now sprung a leak

Should I patch the leak?
With the only tool available – the ice pick

A stranger in a strange world
Where everything seems illogically logic

Trying to reach the bottom of an abyss on a bicycle
A bicycle with square wheels

Should I replace the bicycle?
With the hot air balloon – sans the fire

A stranger in a strange world
Where what you get is not what you asked for

A candle-night dinner outdoors on a bright sunny afternoon
A white Christmas and it literally rains cats and dogs

Strange, stranger still
