The L7 Antidote
How brutal the yoke of duty
That strains the mask of sanity
As it looks for peaks of beauty
In the oceans of profanity.
Yet wear the mask to say you care
To see some grain amid the chaff
Or just to seem more debonair
As you display an urbane laugh;
A cachinnation to declare
A grail quest for marbles lost
Then found again in midnight air
Above a noctilucous frost,
Confirming, with it's august jest,
That sometimes crazy is what's best!
That strains the mask of sanity
As it looks for peaks of beauty
In the oceans of profanity.
Yet wear the mask to say you care
To see some grain amid the chaff
Or just to seem more debonair
As you display an urbane laugh;
A cachinnation to declare
A grail quest for marbles lost
Then found again in midnight air
Above a noctilucous frost,
Confirming, with it's august jest,
That sometimes crazy is what's best!
