FaceBook Clown

 

Chuckling chickens frenzied for food

tear at your tissues while knawing the nude

the touchless the tasteless the feasting fiends

are frying fairy floss at the face book scene

 

A raucous relaying the ringmaster roars

caging creations in lions clause

befriending offending unfriending and stalking

managing misfits as fingers do walking

 

The pretty the precious the profile ping

pernicious a postman runs into the ring

pitting a picture prepared for the masses

to piss off the misses and make of a mattress

 

The listlessly linger by quaking relation

a choir of quiet quailing quotations

while noisy notations and slanderisations

orchestrate the applauding to standing ovation

 

Crows to the claws and the clown crowns in

the ring master chimes as the fat lady clings

the faceless the balless the cackling clown

is juggling jelly with a facebook frown
