Image for the poem CAN

CAN'T HELP BUT LAUGH

You've a rapacious heart

Now
Scourge
You scoundrel
submerged shallow
In the dark and fallow

Though
Truth be told
The golden outline
Of your crime
Is bold

In a way
Sublime

Though
The absence of conscious
Cannot be understated
And any sense of compassion
Could not be more profligated
This extreme nature of neglect
Of what was so wholesome

Now
So loathsome
So wantonly derelict
So wholly absurd
It's a comical effect

You're a caricature
Of chaos
A lingering
Selfish stench
A malevolent
Reflect
Of what once was

The turn so complete
The light so depleted
What should be seen
As mean
So extraordinary
Can't help but gleam
Bright for the comedy
It carries
