Going To The Renaissance Faire
Going to the Renaissance Faire has thrown my spirit back
to noble pursuits of romance, adventure, magick acts
and rediscover mankind's family tree, ancient roots,
if only for eight hours of no phones, computers or suits
Lords and Ladies, crowned Kings and Queens,
I'm still naive as to what old English means
armored knights in chainmail, swords of cold steel,
how charming things seemed, so frighteningly real
those essentials they're so desperately lacking
clean privies, portable Johnnys send me packing
I long to take a peaceful dump out in the woods,
to savor ethnic flavors, quaint handcrafted goods
ah, the heavenly scent of fully blossomed red roses,
foul stenches carried on the air, wafted by our noses
voluptuous wenches in tightly bound bodices, bosoms pert,
unevenly paved roads of gravel, sand, stones and dirt
upon my weekend travels I've seen many wonderful new sights,
how fast feudal life unravels, men plunder villages and unite
brave war heroes, meek women and children, slaves long unfree,
fight for human rights, not quite what it's cracked up to be
coy sages are enchanting in their mystically hexing ways,
lusty female parts performed on stage by young boys and gays
where a doting heart is truer in the eyes of the beholder,
Shakespeare wrote pages of perplexing, dreamy plays to smolder
fair unchaste maidens await to surprise unwedded lovers,
disgraced preachers secretly made out under silky bedcovers
great bardic tales of yore, setting poetic rhymes to song,
sexist lies and treachery, everyone knew where they belong
of a warrior's faults, the royal court Jester fools,
an age of chivalry, loyalty and duty, honor still rules
beauty existed around even monarchs or peasant folks,
such a hard life, yet they made time for bawdy jokes
Today I give thanks for all those blessings I've got,
~~including SMOKED TURKEY LEGGES, HUZZAH!!!~~
living in a solemnly dark medieval world, there wasn't alot
dank days of sexism, evil, and treachery still abound,
but now we can add laziness to our common battle ground
