Surrealist landscape

P. Dickinson

On the pale yellow sands

Where the Unicorn stands

And the Eggs are preparing for Tea.

Sing Forty Sing Thirty Sing Three.

On the pale yellow sands

There's a pair of Clasped Hands

And an Eyeball entangled with string.

Sing Fifty Sing Forty Sing Three.

And a Bicycle Seat

And a Plate of Raw Meat

And a Thing that is hardly a Thing.

On the pale yellow sands

There stands A Commode

That has nothing to do with the case.

Sing Ninety Sing Eighty Sing Three.

On the pale yellow sands

There's a Dorian Mode

And a Temple all covered with lace

And a Gothic Erection of Urgent Demands

On the patience of You and of Me.
