Lemmings (Pantoum)
blindly the lemmings did follow
questioning their leader not
for his word alone they'd swallow
none awake to the piper's plot
questioning their leader not
he'd corralled them with nonsense*
none awake to the piper's plot
they'd be downed at his expense
he'd corralled them with nonsense
a Jim Jones kind of dingbat
they'd be downed at his expense
as he called in a weird ****
a Jim Jones kind of dingbat
proffering the edge's cliff-face
as he called in a weird ****
all drowned pursuing his trace
proffering the edge's cliff-face
the testament of a madman
all drowning pursuing his trace
their eyes were closed like a fan
the testament of a madman
none awake to the piper's plot
their eyes were closed like a fan
*questioning their leader not
