My Human Disguise.
Top-hatted crows fly single file to roost,
Run the town like magicians, all for show.
The snake-tailed cat and Mr. Legnose, loosed
Like all the other inmates, love to crow.
Ostrich-legged, necky racers set the pace
While tittering dancing ghosts dance in place.
But the man-mouthing Eggman’s won the race.
The castle’s prisoners wail from the roof
That they were arrested with too much proof.
A constrictor hangs, his neck in a knot,
From a decayed tree where men made of sticks
Perform unbelievable gymnastics.
The Ringmaster chides his caterpillar,
Though the Boss is a yapping black terrier.
The Ringmaster chides his caterpillar,
Though the Boss is a yapping black terrier.
