In a Land By the Yard
In a land by the yard
by the yard of bones
is the truth a terrible
truth grinning beneath
the trees
A finger points up
and toward the Gods;
dying laughter screaming
'they are all the children
without a hope'
and so it goes...
all across
the ruins the mighty ruins
of fallen minds
as sharp as sharp
as the edge of town
a horror in the day
in the light of day
tears of joy streamin'
as a fat man sings,
it's the serial killer
called
"Pogo the Clown."
