Bottoms and Shadows

You can see bottoms and shadows moving on the landscape everywhere that sight moves your sane mind and your tongue may go numb for a word These bottoms and shadows so scattered claim the status of humanity in their right but the real ones who see them die of laughter as to them it is a mockery of dreamy life Come to this refugee camp of forgotten sorrows many bottoms and shadows run into the nests with enthusiastic ignorance they flock thinking mercy, peace, liberation has arrived Bottoms and shadows in lifeless existence struggle to exist as the world tantalizes them
