Do not bank on a lifesaver
Coming second, first or third
As tall and looming cabers
Scrape skies – hurried and absurd.
Tossed alongside shining sabre
Toothed-Tiger looking herds
They are timid after taming.
And self-righteous bees and birds
Practice surreptitious-slut-shaming
In a world of wizened words
Reduced fruitfully like raisins.
The acorn may be small
But it’s endeavour grows so mighty
From it’s branches to it’s trunk.
And the flock’s morning call
Along with wings so fit and flighty
Launch from their wooden bunk.
Just as Icarus looked down on all
Mankind’s eyes are blinded brightly
By a couping Parliament; whose ship has sunk
To a depth that Devils dare to fall
Which constricts forever tightly.
And makes – a fake of the monk.
