Drinking Sand


The shadow of an inclination
burning down the walls
industrial voodoo
shortly before the fall
Like fish back into the sea
an ancient, mechanical creed
a voracious kind of sophisticated greed
Another violent breed
The growing pain of urban natives
slowly taking change
ballistic sounds of hollow laughter
the end of a sophisticated farce
Driven by a voodoo beat
onto the primitive concrete
Like another violent breed
