HallucinationsOr: One can dream, right?

Frazzled
Look at that fellow to the left:
Have you ever seen
a more fitting illustration for:
1. A frayed or tattered condition.
2. A condition of exhaustion:
worked themselves to a frazzle?
He looks like my twin,
I swear,
Only difference is,
I am not wearing a scarf!

Wish Upon A Star
Oh well, I will be modest:
Forget the star,
Café Hofburg in the
Courtyard of the Imperial Palace
Is way closer!
All I'd really want to do
Is sitting in that lady's chair,
And dig into
That espresso and schlag affair,
To my heart's content!
Pleeease?

The Café Life
Master Class
I want to learn the art of
Lingering at the Kaffeehaus,
Long after the cup of coffee's empty,
Long after I have paid the bill,
Slowly counting out the money,
To make sure,
There's is enough of those coppery coins left,
To get home by bus,
To rest up,
From all that Jazz!

Blue-Gray and Verdigris
A Walking Stick and a Golden Hat,
What do you make of that?
I see a fig tree,
And San Francis,
Walking the Umbrian Hills!

Ella's in the Olive Grove
What will it be?
Octopus carpaccio?
Whole Golden sea bream,
Minted new potatoes, and grilled radicchio?

Franziskanerplatz
Out to lunch,
At Franciscan Square:
The watchful eye
Of the Saint from Assisi
Keeps us from getting too ghiotti!

"Studies have now shown
hallucinatory experiences
take place across the world.
Previous studies, one as early as 1894,
have reported that approximately 10%
of the population experience hallucinations."
