Another from my Bradbury project. This is my tribute to the era (~1966-70) when psychedelic music was in the mainstream. Most of you are old enough to remember this I think. smile

Hope you enjoy this

The Man in the Rorschach Shirt
(c) 2018 by SW Campbell

When I was just a boy the girls found it cute
When their favorite bands wore matching suits
And they sang about love and how much it hurt
Then came the man in the Rorschach shirt

He had newspaper taxis and green tambourines
Matchstick men in yellow submarines
All those skipping reels of rhyme we heard
Were thanks to the man in the Rorschach shirt

And mystic mellow yellow
Girls with kaleidoscope eyes
Clutched surrealistic pillows
And danced ‘neath diamond skies

And we sported Nehru collars
And striped bell-bottom pants
Medallions as big as silver dollars
‘Cause we gave peace a chance

I awoke one morning to a world gone gray
Everybody wearing jeans and torn chambray
They were singing ‘bout the joys of working in the dirt
Gone was the man in the Rorschach shirt
I miss the man in the Rorschach shirt
