In
my world:
Demons
are frequently conquered by angels,
Asteroids
collide and destroy,
Dinosaurs
run riot in cities,
And
witches eat up little boys.
Wherever
captain Janeway boldly goes I avidly follow,
Resistance
is after all futile,
Both
she and her Borg sidekick seven, keep me
Enthralled
and entertained for a while.
I
am now a seasoned traveller to the Greece of old,
The
warrior Xena thrills with her sword and her "many skills",
Trusty
Gabrielle shows great loyalty and a well-toned body,
Together
they help me forget some of my ills.
Were
I to face life without such pleasant diversions,
I
don't think I’d survive very long,
The
routine and monotony of each and every day,
Makes
the pull of depression so strong.
I
therefore salute the balm of escapism,
And
struggle in my world so dull,
Whoever
said "life's there for the taking"
Was
talking a complete load of bull!!
