No, this poem is by HC Artmann. It was made into a theatrical piece by HK Gruber. At one point Gruber (singing, dressed in a leather coat and weird goggles) sings
"A Baby Me Ma Monsterlet is dancing round the house!" Jhonn sang his " Cherabim and Seraphim are marching up the stairs!" in the same rhythm and voice style. I'm guessing he might have seen it (it was on the South Bank show on TV in the UK) and enjoyed it. It was very gothic and fun. Jhonn would've loved it I think.
serenity is, indeed, a problem.

Great stuff.
Anyone catch the reference to the poem 'Frankenstein' at the start?
