A Little Tab of Insight

Are you ready for the main course? Prepare the condiments Thin oven mitts Teas cozies Lace doilies It's just a decoy Here lies the kid who was left home alone while is parents visited The North Pole Try to consolidate the front door And here's a laxative called LSD to aide your constipated mind Now go on with the insurrection And fight Parliament for the sake of the proletariat Who's names are always written in lower case lettering The limousine drivers The skrimpers The savers The single mothers with bad habits who have to dance off skimpy clothing to buy formula for their babies because they're milk is tainted with junk The weary recipients of justice obstructions And catch 22's Who have been singled out because they have monetary deficits Console them Until Eureka! Grab some Q-tips and clean out your ears Stop gritting and grinding your teeth A new realization is in bloom When did be aware turn into beware? When did alertness become fear? Forget and get over your Remanding-accursed-sweet-tooth-fatigue-that you let in Because it's all in your head along with the idea that hyphens make things look more important and scary I contest all that bullshit
