A Dress Rehearsal,  ( Naked Though They Be)

 
 
 
he spoke his pro'babble  
      truth wit  
                      a gun barrell  
                                       in his mouth.  
It may just have been  
                                  a toy     for him, with which  
                                 to toy  
                                  wit us.  
Eye couldn't have given a shit either one way or t'other.  
 
Then, KABOOM.....blood, brain, bone shards all over  
            the Living Room's walls, ceiling, floor. And some  
wee little sprays of blood on a few of the audience's faces.  
              Y'shouda heard the gasping.  
                Some ran for the exits.  
               Some sat stunned to silence.
              They just couldn't stand the irony of it, (and thought  
        the impulse could be contagious).  
 
I found an old Zippo on the floor and proceeded to spin the wheel for  
                to set the house afire. But the spark  
                       had no fuel  
                                           to ignite  the wick
                                                       for the grand crescendo.  
 
         Tough luck, i guess.  
                                                     (Jeez, watta night, eh?)
