Humans born deformed curiosities,
Camel Girl, Lobster Boy, Four Legged Woman.
Once cruelly exhibited as oddities in sideshows,
The only way for them to make a living.
Gawked at by curious throngs of spectators,
Teased and ridiculed by some,
Like making faces at monkeys in cages.
Why must some humans suffer such awful fates?

Bob Boyd
