I Spy!


With the hunger of a priest released
from his vows,
he stalks the night,
inhabiting recesses,
espying flesh denied and cried,
evading God's searching eye.

Brooding hipsters future grim
Rehearsing laughter drowning sin

Broken token takes a fall,
"He ain't needed, after all!"

Doctor! Doctor! is academic,
Viral guilt true pandemic.

Hug the devil cursing heaven;
Roll another lucky seven!

Park bench drooling man, he dozes;
Park Place drooling man, he poses

Twilight Man soothes his suit
On his feet two left boots

Spineless jellies ooze out ear;
No more rides for Paul Revere

Witless witness to the fire
Impaled atop a churchly spire

Trapped in prison: he dares to boast;
Free at last: his life he roast

Holy product manufacture,
Un-mended still his heartless fracture

Sinner winner takes the stage!
Witches arson all the rage!
Voodoo child adores her cage!
Masses hail the thoughtless sage!

Mortgage freeman peerless actor,
Chains of debt be his captor

Not until her booty twerk
Could she make the numbers work

Macaroni candy cheese,
Filling bellies fast as please

Property-intellectual-trespass,
As the universe sighing laughs

Presidential casting take,
Audition won by deep dead fake

Decrepit liar spanks his cane,
Another day lived in vain

Inquiring God wants to know:
Did you let your talent grow?


Hopeless fool swats helping hand,
Sinking silent sorrow sand.

Pounding concrete on his head;
"Sorry, pal, the truth is dead."
