What a lack of shame we all feel.
I advise you to try it.
Under supervision, of course,
Humiliation, its greater cousin, so fulsome
Humbles you with its stature,
Or lack thereof.
Educates you on the nature
Of your fragility.
It is the cake
Of makeup dripping off your eyes,
That someone tried to feed you.
The open account of hope
For a laugh
At your expense.
I will see you
At the wedding. Oh,
You're not invited to.
There is no need to blush,
You've done nothing wrong.
Why? We all do it.
For the love of it.
There is nothing so human
As hiding in a hole.
It takes no dignity to learn.
Your throat could croak
If you want it to.
I'm sure you have experienced
The gamut of emotion.
But let's try it in minor key.
