Flamingo Dreams

Poem style: Japanese Tanka

Birds aren’t real 🦩

Bickering flamingo dentists while im in the chair seems odd

They took two, snook two, of my teeth, before I was aware

Flamingo dentist leaves on break, returns with a loaf of bread

About the Creator

Alex Kingsley

Some have epic dreams and can account the details as if reciting a novel. Mine are more like…. “She returned home from the grocery store and bought too much butter. Several tubs” that’s all.
