Circus

clowns with swollen lips distract from the shining squeakpop nose-- your tips & my fear rose & you're stepping on my toes i see how it goes-- eyes sparkleshine neck wrapped in twine lost in time painted frame i'm tame i came & conquered sauntered away i'll be back yesterday, laughing jolly teehees --knees dirty pleas don't let me give in don't make me give up-- touch up on the face that hides erase re applies to chase the face circus reality carnival-- depravity can't stop a carnivore can't stifle the sense tracking weakness no defense is --self defense is no longer a legible excuse
