Tense Sense

When outrageous gets contagious,
things get topsy-turvy.
Square goes round and air turns ground
while straight becomes all curvy.
Glitter’s thrown in with the litter.
Crones become vivacious.
Monks who’ve taken silence vows
now laugh and get loquacious.
Spinsters take their cars for spins,
looking for hitchhikers.
Lifelong priests embrace their sins,
hanging out with bikers.
But nothing lasts, this crazy blast
will run its course in time.
You meek and staid, don’t be afraid,
this life turns on a dime.
