The Changeling

Me, a circus geek
I was in the long ago
with warm chicken blood
and sheep gut slickness
and other things too,
paying my way in bad times.

A carcass, I smell
like some farmyards might.

The midway alive at night
is a slash right through
all the other dreams
I once had and I am glad
that's all over with.

Now my changeling ways
are well hidden in some back
thoroughly locked room.

  1. It is good to lock changeling days away...more importantly to be in charge of the key to all the rooms that contain our past...just in case we ever get curious or want to clear them out...thanks for your comment also this week it was touching

    1. And thank you, my dear. I like the idea of being in charge, if you can. I was taught even more that if I bring these things to light with trusted closed mouthed friends who do not judge then I am in the best of all possible worlds.

  3. If I hadnt read 'circus geek' I may have thought of it as being all the ingredients tossed together to make up a large family dinner. Beautiful nonetheless

The chicken crossed the road. That's poultry in motion.
