A SLUM’S NIGHTLY DELIRIUM

“Liqour bottles, crawling turps, domestic violence 
Unperturbed herds of- 
Little ‘Voltaire’,’Michaelangelo’, ‘Shakespeare’-sleep on. 
Days spent on grotesque pranks.
Penurous; famished meals,-contracted bellies- 
They end up plotting filmy escapades. 
Caught in frenzy, without any progression- 
‘They and I’-rattling skeletons!!!! 
‘CITY –REFUSE, SOLD HERE…EVERY NIGHT.’ 
‘CITY- REFUSE…! HUSH! HUSH! HUSH! 
“CITY REFUSE…!HUSH! HUSh!HUsh!Hush!hush!” 
“SLEEP!SLEEp!SLEep!SLeep!Sleep!sleep!” 
No more raving!I must sleep, they must sleep……”
