The Other Side
Down the rabbit hole,
Up the Joker stairway.
On the Kerouac road,
More than Alex’s Orange oddness.
It always
Lurks, leeps, pries and peeps…
The Other Side.
*
Down the lure of lust,
Up the pure of meanness,
On the obsessive overdrive,
More than the envious iciness.
It always
Tempts, teases, trumps and treats…
The Other Side.
*
Down the social norm,
Up the alternate moral.
On the twisted bend of mind,
More than yet to be invented evil.
It always
Creates, croons, calls and comes…
The Other Side.
*
Down the vortex of vice,
Up the joy to grief witness.
On the will to vile,
More than the gene of goodness.
It always
Moves, makes, maligns and mars…
The Other Side.
