We can live in a paisley world, <br />Of colors, all mixed up in swirls. <br />We can hide in the subterfuge, <br />Blend in with the curling hues. <br /> <br />For some reverse and some contain <br />Patterns, to confound the brain. <br />Some double back, the very same way, <br />And some are mute, and some delayed. <br /> <br />We won't talk so they won't hear <br />Words between us, that make clear <br />A paisley world is best for us; <br />But plaid works just as well, I trust.<br /><br />Patti Masterman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/paisley-world/
