Bora born
The dragon's first night out _
Perrota's
busy biz
new year's eve's
usual fizz.
Yes, that's right
gently toned
earl grey's tea's
pleasure zoned.
Tables packed
candle lit
flickered light
thempla sit.
Chat away
pleasured talk
while outside
zombies walk.
To the cairns
esplanade
where they sit
on the grass
ready for
noise lit sparks
rendered by
thundered barks.
Quite a show
thempla see
sound stage floats
on the sea
in the bay
pontoons set
insurance
safety net.
Twenty twelve
ushered in
twelve long months
where truth spins
on it's way
through soft lives
smothered by
bought sold lies.
Times now set
ready for
gluttered greed
lost in wars.
Privatised
at long last
corporatised
jackal barks.
Dogs of war
hold the sway
you're asleep
Iran's dazed.
Here it starts
we're the ones
thugs learn from
death's re-runs.
Remember our
supertramps
seventies sons
vietnam's cramp.
Centuries crime
album named
lyrics sung
should be framed.
You're the real
suckered lot
lost in time's
self-filled plots.
While the world
passed on by
goats still grew
horn like eyes.
You were warned
you were told
of creatures
spawned in gold.
Ancient lines
blood their way
they're still here
you're away.
Fast asleep
out of tune
narcissus
like consumed.
Entertained
faceless books
memed by right's
spun out crooks.
Simple plans
control minds
religion's
master find.
Just keep quiet
don't rise up
the rapture's
meant for that.
Fool the dog
drop the bone
they want you're
pleasure zone.
Pass the bucks
your minds too
live your lives
inside zoos.
Read the books
Orwell's two
table's set
not for you.
Cockroaches
your new name
cartoon folk
feel no pain.
Animal
farm has been
their book of
dreams it seems.
The shadow moves
across the deep
wake up, fess up
you peopled sheep.
