CARICATURE OF A TRIBUNAL

CARICATURE OF A TRIBUNAL

A Poem by Cyndy Robinson

Remnants of haze in fairy tales.
Splintered fragments chipped
in dicso balls, 
weeds stoned blooming,
on nicked velvet walls.
Robots bow and prey,
whitewashed
and the Jester rules.

Flavored tongues of miscreants;
massaged costumed dogs,
imprinted laps of drool: 
watercolor stained.
Paralyzed pigments
a metronome 
of true-blue debauched
but still the Jester rules.
.
Black lives dribble in
dungeons of hops feeding; 
circumcised flowers breeding. 
Execration staining crowns
in a painted court of clowns.
Everyone drowns,
as the juggler dribbles,
and the Jester rules.

In an exterminated court
marching to mechanized sounds.
Still the clones fawn,
brandishing undercover
only me,
and the gas chamber spouts
asphyxiates all the me(s)
And the Jester fools..
