He stumbled upon a desert town
started to look for a bite to eat,
he was surprised to find the town
so bright, sparkling clean and neat.
Welcome signs were everywhere
on all of the small town’s doors.
He stepped into a quaint cafe,
luminous clean he found the floors.
The furnishings were spotless
and the counter was the same,
then he noticed something odd,
as he sat down, no one came.
He looked in the back, then
stepped out to search the town.
He tried other shops and stores
walking up the street and down.
A sign he missed on entering
said: “Welcome to Confusion,”
“a home for Guardian Angels,”
“for all others an illusion.”
