Taciturn, twist and meet
(or) cross with a purpose, chaste and neat
Signal fire the foremost spell
Earthen glee, barbaric yell
"Remember me" we have returned
With fire legions, hands are burned
Three men stand before a crowd
With naked wrists and thunder cloud
The spit came thick with broken words
Pictures castles stony birds
Shiny mirror in their eyes
See power, lazy, choking lies
The wisdom of a centuries weight
(lurking freedoms hesitate)
While lonely healers make the most
Of some old bitch's Asian ghost
Plot me in the great escape
Then cut my drugs and make me late
Sort out letters from the kill
(mother's country--maiden's fill)
Need to go on; a soldier's crutch
These the branches, roots that clutch
Growing out from neighbor's eyes
This a warning to the wise:
This a warning to the wise!
Maintain vigilant despise
Rotten meat and apple cores
((the smell of sweet eyeshadowed whores))
Slicing neat with shoulders shrugs
She thinks "pretty is as pretty does"
At necropolis, a hangman's feast
I the dreamer, you the dream.
Damocles got sucker punched
A bastard sword at Sunday brunch
He never saw the plot entire
Or heard the plier clip the wire
But unimpressed with kingly strife
He called the bluff and took his life.
In England waits a prince in need
On beggars worm the fish will feed.
