Like a swarm they squeeze frantically,
armed with proof
slung around their throats,
pushing forward they point and grab,
not stopping to think
of that dying slave.
But look at you all,
like pigeons to the crumb.

The dying slave is a reference to a Michelangelo sculpture portraying a man seemingly abandoning life.
