Vanished, The Applause Poem by DAVID GERARDINO

SNAKES, and a windy day,
a noose swings left, then
right, then lands in the middle,
CAGED, like a fish in a tub,
theres danger there, and a
shark that grows, and grows,
SPECTERS, swaddled in blue,
and a mother shows the child,
its a small world after all,
the scene shifts, the back front,
and the noose shows up for
another clown , to take a look,
theif, hypocrite, gobbling all
on the spot, take your sanctuary
of death some where eles, im
tired, and need a long, long
rest.
