after the darkness
ned ludd returns
destroying the gin
within
my spinning reality

turn around norman
never had a day
like this

my arrogance
knows no bounds
to think
anyone is listening

once was an empire
where the walls of syracuse
still stand
damocles found out
power is power

and

obsession for possession
was arguably
the very first
death sentence

an unfortunate
algorithmic defect
of platonic thought

after our own
modern
day of epiphany
it took eight more turns
of this spinning globe
for them good ol’ patriots
to go from expecting to be shot
to pretending that it never happened

an unfortunate
algorithmic defect
of american exceptionalism
