amazing eye whites,
perfect and pure as glacial ice -

The angel of the lord
Appeared on TV sets
All over the world

People woke up
Expecting to see
The usual suspects

Talking heads

A stern old man
In a dark suit

He had a salt and pepper beard
And long,...

The one that make us distinguishable

What a blast…
Nothing lasts…
So, listen up…
I’m drinking sarcasm’s cup

Can’t stand the envy
Can’t stand the anger
Can’t stand the rage
Can’t stand it

Smothered beneath the white man's blanket,
