Sharpen your stunted tusks in this city night.
Yesterday a wide-eyed stabbing
Tonight a crowbar fight a desperate fight.
Sleeping alone and drugged frightened fat and wet
I swear I'm chasing sanity
Lost easy laughter and forgetting.
I'm going south
To feed the animals
I'm going south
Become elephantine.
Elephant in drought-struck shock is trumpeting her grief.
Stays with her dying baby trunk stroking dry and persued
She dies too.
How can I justify wailing at these walls?
Every great nation ends up deserving war
