Flourishing with leaves, I hide
The pain with a smile
I would scream the stars awake
If only I had my voice
Drip from the mouths of the mighty
Seep into the blood
Beware this arsenal of
Weapons of misdirection

Shaven-headed ghosts in white
Shoved onto transports
Somewhere, will we find their graves
There in the southern jungles?
Ooopsie Too Late

Goes where he wants, shitting on
The white marble floors
Watch the fawning senators
Scrambling to get out of his way
Incitatus

Perhaps it would be well to
Heed the mockingjay
We walk a perilous path
'twixt Panem and Gilead
The Admonitions of Tiresias I
