HANDWRITING ON THE WALL

Feasting in daylight

Ravaging ailment all over

Days grows behind bars

Captured for no cause

They wet their appetite

With passion and wine

While saliva wets mine

So I called

For strong bones

And sunrise eyes

We took timber

And colours

To streets and tarmac

Singing a usual song

For this unusual occasion

There they smoked us

Like cheap rabbits we are

Some fled, others fainted

A handful died

And I was caught

They brought me before him

To show remorse

And pledge fealty

After their long

Shouts and scary antics

They allowed me to speak

“I would gladly Fall

With the handwriting on the wall”.
