A SLUM’S NIGHTLY DELIRIUM

“Liqour bottles, crawling turps, domestic violence 

Unperturbed herds of- 

Little ‘Voltaire’,’Michaelangelo’, ‘Shakespeare’-sleep on. 

Days spent on grotesque pranks.

Penurous; famished meals,-contracted bellies- 

They end up plotting filmy escapades. 

Caught in frenzy, without any progression- 

‘They and I’-rattling skeletons!!!! 

‘CITY –REFUSE, SOLD HERE…EVERY NIGHT.’ 

‘CITY- REFUSE…! HUSH! HUSH! HUSH! 

“CITY REFUSE…!HUSH! HUSh!HUsh!Hush!hush!” 

“SLEEP!SLEEp!SLEep!SLeep!Sleep!sleep!” 

No more raving!I must sleep, they must sleep……”
