Humanity Stew

We're all ingredients in the humanity stew The sad clowns The prescription abusers The chickens running around without their heads This dish can never be out done It's killing me Ashes from Pompeii The braces of teenage heart throbs Bloody black and blues from abusive relationships Fill the pots and pans A homemade meal per say Chain linked sausage fences Add some Epsom salt Some beef chuck Giblets And Simonides of Ceos Daphoenus bones A dentist and a retainer Cornets, pirouettes and percocets Awkward magazine subscriptions You can buy the cookbook in all its opacity See it in the Intrepid Museum There is work to be done on Mount Olympus Therefore we should go see a movie at the drive in
