Long Scum Poems

{intro}
(Whisper) mmmmhmmm
Turn me on by your tranquil, no-drama-no-trauma tune

Hear me out 
At ease,
I hear your victory shout!!!

Ooooo I-I-I-I...

You can always tell by the eyes
When they’re starting to go
You’ll fall for a few of their lies
Before you begin to know
And you will just defy it
(But they know you will never go)

They’ll glide through...

To manipulate laws to disqualify voters,
Vote multiple times, or give dead living voice,
These are acts of a traitor! Man’s born with a choice.
Should political virtue be building consensus,
To hate when you don't win a kind...

Once upon this time

Selection based on God's vote for mercy,
apparently,
because...

A country of dreams has burst its rainbow at all ragged seams

In a state of affairs illusion of fusion and widespread delusion

When in Aquarium sun anneals hair

You’re nothing, but scum
You’re nothing, but waste
You’re nothing, but trash
