Is this but charades, in the darkness of shade; and that’s why it seems so senseless.
It’s like the jockeys on lawns; that a dog...

The Keystone Cops were funny,
Chaplain, Keaton, Lloyd, and Fields too.
Laurel and Hardy, and Will Rodgers,

Dogs dogmatically guard the home
Sounding the alarm with a growling bark
As owners are alerted to the threat
Miscreants flee into the dark

I am a patriot and the daily grin of small town people.
I sometimes wonder why a small town person would even bother.
I hear the breaks of ambivalence in their awkward laughs.
I see the scintillating sparks...

I sabotaged my eight-millimeter childhood.
I never knew Sartre
But I contorted my latex face,
Burying my nothingness in family films.
My child was scripted to be ugly, skipped over
In comic relief.

Only recognizable as Menoetius, 
My only animation was...

The trees smell so real, so sympathetic.
A monument to strength and victory.
They seem like a shoulder to cry on.
Something to rely on in an uncertainty.
The birds still chirp and hold no grudge,

And if I did, comic relief! Just fodder for bad jokes!

I'm a Ghetto clown, a fool for the cash/
Juggling dreams while the world does a dash/
If laughter's a crime, then call me a crook/

Even if I would never live to tell.

It is a stark reality, that must be approached 
with Family, Community and...

They light the street with their unique dance steps
Passersby forgetting to pass. 
Like a prophetess in trance.

LAW IS A COMIC RELIEF

Law is a comic relief
Subtlety amidst ardent belief.

Draconian legislation
