Clap, Clap, Clap
By Meher Randeria
Clap, clap, Clap
Clap, clap, clap.
Praise the kid,
Smiling so wide, so wicked.
Clap, Clap, clap.
Another day, another destiny;
Another near miss for me.
Clap, clap, Clap.
He goes up and claims
What’s his: prizes with fame.
Clap, Clap, Clap.
The hard, crusted rack
Feels soft on my back.
Clap, Clap, Clap
The sleepless nights and balls-
Did they mean aught at all?
Clap, clap, Clap
Civility, a docile thing
Helps with the placidity it brings.
Clap, Clap, clap
These applause are quite long,
For the wonder kid singing a song.
Clap, clap, clap
The room’s closing in, and quite hot;
Next time, maybe, I’ll get my shot.
