electromagnetic

we are receptors
unignited ununited
only tuned into our own

frequency

existing to be lit
the fuses touching
reaching delicately 

that which we do 
and do not see, 
believe

All things good and va-a-aluable,
all progress great and small,
all folks small and ma-a-alleable,
the Dark Lord ate them all.

Defied the constitu-u-ution
launched media attacks, 
abated persecu-u-ution,

told 15,000 lies,
shrugged off the repercu-u-ussions,
discredited...

Appearing like that would shatter my nerves.

Entertainers par excellence, they can lip-synch
While dancing in a line together...
