We watch patiently As they gobble down our yam, Like vultures preying on living carcasses. They hurled faded notes on us Yes, We scrounge for the silver curse Drawn from allure of darkness. We watch patiently As they invalidate empty facts Of a super cat. Alas! Masquerades of royal circuses Acting yet again Depicting moral dullness Of all cryptic lunatics. At the background, Across the spectrum, We wail And wail And wail... Together with the zombies. |
