stunt m*dg*ts march in hackensack for their rights

August 22nd, 2013 § 0 comments

Poem #221 for Tommy Carney

 

Here’s the set-up:

A midget from the movies
marches with madness for
the mythological rights of the masses

This is what reality has come to

Degrading a Little Person to a spiteful slander
while laughing past the hallucination of self-serving delirium;
Bodies climbing over soon-to-cease-to-be-living bodies
clammoring to watch this freakshow of
minature stunt magicians
flying flaming through the oxygen with
backflip window smashing ninja race gunslinging awesomeness!

and the screams of the hoards
regardless of their heckle
because the little man
always
gets less than the big man

but still need to march on in Hackensack
