Insanity

Reading scary poems on poetry soup
Heard a sound unfamiliar too boot

Jumped up from the desk chair and there
In the kitchen the big mouth had legs rare

Just like the tin man in "The Wizard Of Oz"
It had legs that moved, arms, and wings that was

For a split second I thought I heard him sing
Calm, calm imagination gone wild no longer a child

This isn't a thing just an optical illusion
I really hated the intrusion (into my insanity)

(Couplet--Sorta)

Clever., ..enjoyed mucho. If you aren't familiar with Vincent Price, aren't familiar with his movies filmed after the novels of E. Poe, then you are very young. Oh, to be young again. Love, daver
