Gig's up!

What happens next

After your gullible audience gets woke

When those you saw as bare-exposed put on clothes

When they remember their spectacles were on their foreheads all along

What happens when they see your nakedness

You in your theatrical control booth

Like the Wizard of Oz playing "God",

eating the fruit of your own delusional garden

_
What happens next...

When the ones you've led astray stop laughing at the "joke"

When their sense of smelling something fishy returns to their noses

When they start to see through your smoke and mirrors to something "very wrong"

What happens when they expose your madness

Like a harmless teady bear whose just had a saw tooth

When they realise your game was actually quite odd;

that a frightened child has been acting "guardian"

_
What happens next,

when the Parent comes home
