The Sting of Truth

A child grabs a honeybee
It’s reluctant to sting
But takes its orders from above

The passing of the passion
Parade throwing baggies of nails

Some of which make their
Way into a coffin

In the living room
Of the mentalist

Who keeps forgetting
His glasses on his head

The circus is also in town
With its sideshow tent

Amazing smiling fetuses
Sorted by religious denomination

Jars being Windexed
By the world’s tallest evangelist

Who stopped to blow his nose
With a dollar sign hanky

The day a child caught
A honeybee in her fist
And got stung real bad
