The Old Days

In the old days when you wrote things down, a circus was a circus and a clown was a clown.

Talent was a gift propelling a printed face and a printed face sold a circus in the old days when you wrote things down.

In the old days following tradition meant more than just a chore,  in the old days when you robbed a shop you knew it was against the law.

In the old days when we had Elephants we shouted because they were being slaughtered.

At school we saw pictures of a Rhino. That translated into Chinese says: “did we really hunt and kill them oh wise one?Yes we did because crushing the horn of the dead glorious fantastic beast gave me a semi.”

“But this is detached?”

“That was in the old days son!”
