Middle March Madness

March middles and meanders
while munching on mild marigolds and
meekly mumbling melancholy meanings
about the miserable maladies of
migraines from mostly grasses and pollens.

Meanwhile, mealy mouthed moguls
make monotone messages about 
monopolies while meandering
around the metropolis, moving
morosely like mundane mensches.

Maybe a masseuse with a
mustard mustache could
manipulate and mop up the 
madness that has multiplied
over this mixed up millennium.

Mostly, though, we must march and
move to mitigate the mad man monarchy 
or make a mad dash to Monrovia!

March has always been associated with one kind of madness or another, Laura! But I think Americans have had to put up with madness through many other months apart from March! // paul
