CHILDREN OF LAUGHTER

Children of laughter,

Mannish boys of song,

Hormonally searching

For puppets to carry on.

Pontifical child,

Wisdom from a fence

Hurls barbarous maxims

At cripples jumping for a dance.

Sensuous child,

Oral, anal, and phallic fanned,

The howling cherub we loved and changed

The first to portray a man.

Demonstrative child,

Lyrical minstrel soliciting love,

Vanity faced, peeling masks,

Methodically uncovering what he’s made of.

Reclusive child,

Daydreaming of a higher plane,

Awakens in an aphrodisiacal abyss,

Befriending libidos with no refrain.
