Druids of No Resistance

Before we say goodnight There is something you should know About the oven door. It is streaked. There was a man named Fidelity Armstrong. He laughed at anything. He hung about waiting for pool. Then there were the Druids of No Resistance: I called them, and they spoke In low, meaningful tones. The advantage of sleep deprivation-- It cleanses the soul. Might we all be polished Until we return To view the oven door. Cat-calls in the off-times, Pleasantries adrift like cherries, Monkeys riding horses-- The circus of our lives.
