Always ugly as sin;
Defeat purpose and repeat and repeat.

Every Spring they march relentless
    ugly as sin and almost scentless

  My well-groomed lawn devastated
    annual ambitions again frustrated

  'Cos' 'Wendell's Weed Killer' didn't work
    though highly touted by expert jerks

  At $65 a bag, the stuff wasn't cheap
    with joy I sowed, in tears I reaped

John Merrick
Freak show fascination 
Machine trauma exhumation 
Have you found it? 
Yes, (An awful morbid operation) 
Did you see it?  No. 
One of the curious 
Pay for a peek 
Life is full of surprise's 
Consider the fate 
Consider the life 
Torture as a spectacle 
Deformed and mutated beyond reform 
Rescued by sympathy 
A man of faith  Ugly as sin 
A freak is never safe 
Difference never wins 


END
