The urge to join the circus
means static
like a blood clot on the brain,
means quotidian slaves with decent pay
would rather shovel shit and hay.
The urge to join the circus
is not unlike the urge to kill:
it begs release, provides relief,
and heats a frigid will.
The urge to join the circus
means choosing net or rope,
means a life parading around
mocking youthful hope.
