The Daily Freak Show

The world is so shrill but I’m standing still

Until the insanity gets its thrill

They stand in line to get their prescription refill

This is where the blood will spill,

All the while the demon laughs

As war tears the bodies in half

While a clueless president makes his gaffe

One more shooting to fly the flag at half mast,

The fools that we are

Perhaps get your name in the stars

Intelligence is scarce so far

Find what’s left at the sports grill and bar,

It seems as marriage goes

Domestic violence only seems to grow

You can count on another pandemic don’t you know?

Life has now become a daily freak show,

And you ask where is God?

Does it seem just a little odd?

No worries you’ll be planted in your own piece of sod

When your creator gives the nod,

Forgive me for being sarcastic today

After she left me I was so blown away

I’m constantly reminded how easily things go astray

I’m nothing more than a sentry come what may,

Was it any surprise just how you lied?

Seems you marveled at despair magnified

Put your feelings aside you’ll always be denied

Your downfall will be your own foolish pride.
