Hamstrung, testing, testing,
one, two, three,
thunderbolt,
doubled in succession;
why, why, why,
isn't thunder just flatulence?
Hamstrung, whimper and cry,
where, where, where,
is all the time?
Blue and green,
dribbling, dripping,
and expiring;
never to be seen.
Hamstrung, tender snore;
tardy, tardy, forevermore,
what, what, what,
will come of the day,
not yet imagined,
in an image-Way.
Hamstrung, tried and true;
heads roll and stain the streets,
red, white, and blue,
the king's head on a pike,
the emperor's in the nude,
so who, who, who,
is next in line;
for throne and gallows,
is mere difference in kind.
