Autumn Menagerie 17: Euphorion


"Look around now,

These are the days of the beggars and the choosers......

And it's hard to love, there's so much to hate...."

----"Praying for Time", George Michael.

Timeless words, beautifully sung,

Always rise to fall on deaf ears.

Euphorion, beautiful man-child,

Helen weeps for you.

    When you find yourself writing poems about George Michael, thats a pretty good sign that the Autumn Menagerie has run its course...

    You lack "Faith". The Menagerie will "Go Go" on.

    see.. now if you had just paid homage to Michael Jackson instead, you could say Beat It.
