Iii: Pig-Watchers and Pigs

Darest Vicar – They were like pig-watchers Watching over the canvass Of new songs harping campus liberty; Darest Vicar – They were security women: For they were men Separated from the cause of man! Security women: swollen of bellies (Now as if aware of little old tricks) Stood still like the world spying The manhood of a proud pig and pigs; Security women wisened by securites (Used on men of the mines: here!) Only stood still spying – Then, from this rostrum of fake sermons Your canvas lay bared: A corpse withdrew from the cant; Your legs descended swiftly: Pig-watchers and pigs escaped via backyard.
