Watch the Parade

================


Watch the Parade

We busily slap mortar
to the bricks of our
very own prison walls
keeping the outsiders out
and the insiders in.

Sing Sing, Attica, Alcatraz,
Christian, Buddhist, Hindu, Sufi,

Sufi's? you mean them Moosleems?
You have got to be kidding.

No, no, no, its just another parade
and the clown's are the way.

Put your trowel down and
sit with me on the porch.
Put your feet up on a brick.
Have a lemonade.
Watch the parade.
