Unchallenged Supremacy In Unprecedented Lunacy

At the behest of the druid Camped in my vicinity I analyse and sanitise the fluid Whose viscosity flatters the dignity and sanity Whose circumference and impedance Exceeds the threshold I set for the reactance and insistence Meant to withhold Uncontrolled leakage of hatred Unleashed with total abandon With any venom spread and shred By the lunatic don Who concocted and fabricated A subterfuge in a bid to enslave My mind in a desiccated Prison where as a slave I stand no chance My freedom to recover If perchance I should in the end discover The secret potion and elixir of perennial youth In very high demand in top society where it is sought after By an uncouth tooth Whose sardonic laughter and chatter Turns and burns mere mortals into eunuchs Favoured by head shrinkers In experiments where spooks Reveal the mystery longevity thinkers Vaunt as the new frontier To life beyond one hundred years Which wipes off a tear From faces petrified by fears Senility runs down spines Bent in an arc Reminding folks of evergreen pines Swaying in the wind when flak In an overdose torpedoes Illusion entertains As the lunatic druid slams doors Shut to incinerate curtains Where I cringe Wince Disillusions I singe As sanity detractors give up their losing battle eversince.
