ITS THE MUD THAT LUVS US
Wallowing in our comfort zones,
Is not the taste of Mondays;
Penultimate to the hype of carnival,
Indeed just the opposite.
Altars of reverence are deserted,
Adulting factors of brain go warp.
A communal mayhem dances,
To the feverish pace, of bacchanalia.
And yes!
Mud always, its the mud that luvs us,
As we become our own primal Adam.

Gillena, when you say the 'fervor' of a carnival, I know what that means to a Triniidaian. Re my SIL. I can feel how wrapped up we are in the mud (muddles) we get into. I'm not familiar with the bacchanalia, so I'll hit up Google when leave. New word for me, thank you
