Dante’s Trip Into the Senses

Care for a trip into my happy madness?

Are you sure?

Okay!

Welcome to the trip of the senses

Nothing really fits together

Or does it really?

There’s really one way to find out

Bright blinding colors that block out the sun

Don’t look in so closely

Loud pounding techno club music greets you at the entry

High-energy all around

Feel hungry?

Sample the sweet-tasting sakura mochi

Come on,

Don’t be shy

See?

You’re enjoying it already

But it’s only the first level

Keep walking

Oh and take off your shoes

No, do it

Sticky sweet pink carpets of cotton candy below

Taste it

Pretty good eh?

Let’s move on

Light and dark are lovers here

They ate up the boundaries years ago

The trees are bent and twisted up always the way to the trunk

Yes, those are chicken-flavored dolphins swimming by

Along with the other tasty fish and creatures of the sea

This is the ocean

Warm salty water tingles on one’s skin

The glass warm sand on the beach was between the first and the second level here

Care for a swim?

Later you say?

Okay, we’ve got more of the tour

Dive into level three

Careful!

You will get sucked into a massive water vacuum

Hang on!

Whoosh!

The salty powerful waves can almost drown a shark if it wanted

Very few make it this far

Here’s a soft teddy bear fluffy towel for you

Look all around you

This is where everything is confusing

But, that’s the way I like it

Here, you are in my green grassy little kid playground

It’s always summer here

The equipment is always shiny and new here

Hear that?

That’s is the noon lunch bell rising on a high wicker post near the sunny yellow chow hall

What’s on the menu you ask?

Well, we have a bento lunch with:

Grilled chicken on skewers

Big fat shepherd’s pie

Fresh sushi of eel, squid, shrimp, tout, mackerel, and other fish

Crispy curly fries

Cool cans of Black Cherry Vanilla

Sticky big Oreo cake pies

Eat up!

Pretty good, huh?

Finish up so we can get on the train

The train is a bright, loud, and colorful

It’s all a wonderful ride

The train is pretty slow

That’s the only thing here that is slow in the great place

Any moment now, we will be in level four

Every single level is just like this one

Only much sweeter,

Colorful,

And different from everyone else’s minds

Just the way I like it!

But then, when you get to the center…

It’s simple

All there is a one single healthy pink cherry

A bright red playhouse

And ice cold grass

Come and sit with me

Enjoy the lovely sounds about the of the mixed seasons

I am alive

I am free
