Freak Show

Step right up, Come one, Come all,
View the "Freaks", We tend to call.
The cost is cheap, Sometimes it's free,
Often for those, Refusing to see.
Inside you'll find many curtains galore,
Imprints of the mind so easily ignored.

Behind this curtain you're sure to find,
An aspect so dangerous, Yet undoubtedly kind.
Deformity in nature, It does not lack,
So meek, So weak, So strong in fact.
Contorting itself, For survival of course,
The box is not its standard source.

Follow me quickly. To the next curtain we go.
Some try to forget, This is not only a show.
Swallowing the sharpness of a bitter tongue,
One tries to forget, From where they come.
Conjoined with reality, Critically stuck it seems.
Escaping only, In what we view as dreams.

One last curtain, For all who care,
Do not be frightened, Now don't be scared,
No sudden movements, No final dares,
Look very closely, but please don't stare.

Avoidance is not the path, You'll see,
The freakish mind was meant to be.
The oddity here, Is the "Normal" mind,
Judgement is not yours,
Judgement is not mine.......
