The Undeserving Circus

I forgot to wear my sunday best The one that stands all the tests Like the physical and admiration survey Like the emotional and spiritual detail The human eye has to be kept entertained It is almost like every move has to be an enterprise well trained Be it a clown well crowned Or an animal well groomed These things are held at a higher pedestal More so the tricks add to the missing decimal My tattered thoughts haven't scored a goal Its a helter skelter in there, always a brawl Scrolling down on ways to handle, leads to a chaotic venture Don't ask why or where, how do I even know how to censor How do I even end, as I mend my unwritten one...
