Crazy Mary Poem by Paul Warren

Crazy Mary would always hang around
And she would jump at the slightest sound
Pushing her shopping trolley day and night
Telling strangers she met of her fright

That changed her life in a moment then
And her terror from that night would not end
She had been walking home after working hard
And turn the corner into her home yard

When in a flash the world had changed
Scaring her by how it was rearranged
She was in another place with a green sky
With strange lizard creatures flying high

And they chased her across an open plain
As she screamed loudly in her lonely refrain
She did not recognise the plants or animals
Until she was cornered without a saving call

She stayed that way not being able to leave
As she lost her mind in this place as she grieved
Then as suddenly as the world appeared
It disappeared but it left her with remaining fear

The dimensional travel had broken her mind
And she now wanders around through her insanity bind.
