Your own granny is the bearded lady &
the three legged man can be seen
in any old barroom rapist;
Two – headed Janus smiles & sneers
in each & every big or little lie.
This here is the real thing:
meet the the baby – man
still wears nappies & suckles milk from his mama,
his age the same as the size of her titties;
a real broken heart in a reinforced glass case,
torn still warm & cleft neatly in two
from the hanging breast of a suicide;
Billy Two-Beards Two Noses,the auto-fellatio man;
the man brought up by a family of newts,
found behind his own desk in an
accountancy firm;
they’re all here, & more
the Fat Lady,so obese she has to be
kept away from airports due to her geo-
magnetic orbit;
he who weeps constantly & sits in a bath
full of his own salty tears;
the boy who eats dung;
the two lovers who never met;
The Siamese Twins,boy and girl,
joined – guess where- at the groin;
Mrs.Owl,the lady can move her head
through 360 degrees,learned,she says,
through fear
Mr.Mrs.Woof ,man & dog & husband &
wife, see love transcend all specie
These – & more – will open your eyes.
