Self-out-the-Box

Jack is enough

I didn't have Jack in a single box.

I turned the cranks like a broken clock,

but all the Jills popped out with nil;

so I ran up that hill, injured still,

to swap my crown for Camelot.

About the Creator

Patrick M. Wegner

I am a Malkavian that made it to ceremorphosis by accident; then I took my sweet time consuming the host implanted. I bear no prestige and no accolades. My only degrees rest in the spheres of passion, expression and ingenious stupidity.
