Send in the Clowns

Nono nooo ya didnt just say tha

  his hearing was just fine his mouth said wha he wanted it to say 

                                                                      he didnt care for it when he turned inward and saw the heshes shehes gathered  collectively giving him a dirty look 

                                                                    Wha

Whaya just say

he wished they wouldnt whine together at once their voices sounded like a highoverhead nasally wind

he cleared his throat to address them he was peeved 

                                                           I remember donever worry tha I said to leftie You only want to get up on my lap an play with my thing

Thing 

      Ya don think tha came out wrong

Wanna get your heads out of the gutter this morning

he stood

when he did the weighted laces to his sweatpants fell and swung before his crotch

Shes a cat Catsfor whaever reason are attracted to laces loose fibers glittery beadsHell labels the thin leather patch on my 501 jeans flies they chase flashlight beams across carpets up walls 

                                                                              Theyre to rub it in pussy  cats

   Yawanna break it up go back to doin whaever it is youse do when I don attract your attention

a collective shrug 

                   then they began milling aimlessly abouthands stuffed in their pockets like they didnt know what it was they had been doing
