legends at vaudeville,
pasttime of the sleaze in a past time.
it's a burlesque world these days,
pride in prostitution,
props in sex for sale.
one day in vaudeville like a few weeks in disney world,
anymore.
when all those princesses are only
a more recent brand of sexy
strippers from their day.
ragtime rags
wear all that you can't,
wear all but your clothes.
it's hard to wear your heart on your sleeve
when you haven't a sleeve to wear it with,
so let your organs fall out
and give your heart away,
sell your soul for a second of glamour.
we're here in this
perpetual vaudeville horror,
a progressive society of bad taste.
how long can softcore porn entertain the masses?
not long, apparently.
not anymore, at least.
