Nuts Around the Fruitcake Farce

The nuts gather round the fruitcake.
The rooster negotiates vegetarianism with the fox.
The ostrich searches for a deeper meaning.
The doves clip their wings to set an example for the hawks.

The prisoners plead guilty of provoking their torturers.
The believers do a rain dance in the storm.
The blind refuse to look at unpleasant sights.
The holy bless the worship of idols.

The pimps preach the virtues of service.
The meek praise humility and the power of hope.
The rulers chop away at the tree of life to get to the top.
The prophets die poisoned by the sins of their followers.

Call it a tragedy, a comedy or a farce. It doesn’t matter because we’re not part of it.

We’re performing the drama of a new world, directed by life and produced by nature. Would you like to join our cast? You must be capable of singing Justice and dancing The Pursuit of Happiness.

    Ok, I join, for the dance of Pursuit of Happiness I will get inspiration with the kids around the corner, as they don’t have toys or television, they dance every evening while clapping their hands.
