The Joke

Poor and ugly married a prince starting a joke that made the world cry I didn’t see the joke was on me The prince was a frog and I started to cry making the world laugh laugh as I cried Oh if only I'd seen the joke was on me. Beaten and desolate on crooked path of lies wealth piled up in isolation high crazed in mind saddened in heart I looked at the sky hands over eyes blinded by the light piercing mind unearthing secrets couldn’t deny fell off bed my hands had made hurt by truth my head I died and the world lived as I laughed with the gay cried with the sad because of light of love in head and heart I lived. Worm eating dirt looked at the sky beat my butterfly wings and the world. followed lead.
