Conniptions
Shake Rattle n' Roll
I suffer my fits with aplomb,
Unapologetically, cataleptically numb.
Supinely copacetic,
I project the kinetic,
Giving up the depravity,
What Earthbound lemmings call gravity.
*
They fall in line;
But mainly they fall, in time
And follow Newton off the cliffs.
***
I condemn those pathetic
Fools fearing the frenetic
And convulsions outrageous
That make me courageous,
So I willingly drop flat
At the drop of a hat.
*
There's no resistance
When I cease with desistance
Ignoring skeptic epileptics.
***
Medical reasoning fails
All my posturing entails.
I connipt away annoyingly
To ruin parties destroyingly:
"He's no fun, he fell right over
And shook and twitched and produced an odor."
*
It's the ictally way I am;
Don't anatomically give a damn:
The best way to end relationships.
