Garbage

Start and stop Up the street, Turn 180, Repeat the beat. The gurus on Confessional wheels, Absolve our sins, Emptying bins. I swear They swear A solemn oath Never to Disclose the truth Found in our garbage By the brethern, Garbage stinking To high heaven. Bottles, syringes, Boxes, bones, Peelings, plastics, Old cell phones, Discarded trash From our homes. Wrappings bleeding Seeping puss: *By our garbage Ye shall know us.*
