Medicine shows
Those who would peer
into baubles and see a
future that couldn't exist,
how I missed the charlatan
also
the kosher kebab and the kaftan.
I won't complain about the rain
it might just stop a war,
ha, you think,
but one day it's water
we'll all be fighting for.
You never saw that inΒ your crystal *****
not even in the halls of Aesir.
We're all starving in the land of plenty
blind with twenty/twenty.
I need more and more
never is more
more than enough for me,
greedy?
feed me your protocols
I'll have them with lentils
because it's all soup
anyway,
