Insomnia
Similar to the goatee
as popularized by
mephistopheles
or a tattooed neck
fate's mustache limits
employment
opportunities.
No one would hand over
car keys
for instance
or sign a name calmly
for a notary public
with a mustache like
that.
But tonight, as fate
leans
over my kitchen table
(she will sleep no
more,
he croons)
I can't help but
observe
that, in his line of
work,
fate's mustache
could not be done
without.
Haha! I love this especially the first few lines and the ending.
ReplyDeleteThe line, "fate's mustache limits employment opportunities," just rolls off the tongue. Give me some context for this, my dear Mr. JIngle.
ReplyDeleteNO CONTEXT, JUST ART
ReplyDeleteI understand COMPLETELY, Mr. Jingle. Just say you don't want to explain it.
DeleteMaybe old Jingle doesn't understand himself completely?
DeleteHa! Augustus I had to discuss this with SP to fully grasp, but I'm liking it the more I read it. Is that a def. of good art?
