Untitled

Through a lacy veil of sewer dreams

We glimpse at lust’s bounty soggy-eyed

Us, the dispossessed vagabonds

And bastardized beneficiaries of borrowed sands

Polluting leafy suburban avenues

In our tick infested uniforms

We police these adventurous colonies

With our cosmopolitan pretences

Travelling undetected among moles

And cleansed ethnicities

Here straddles our drunken messiahs

Salivating like strays with lazy shame

Scaling ruins and garbage piles

Down shanty roads named after campaigners

And bankers

Our restricted ground zero

Bursting with flowers and phantasms of names

Redacted from artifacts, lies

Barren and exposing scatterlings of bones

Scavenged by other tramps for sugar factories
