Once upon a time
Once upon a flimsy time
One quiet similar to mine
A smog stricken
Tower block kingdom
Ticks by
The curling grey
Curdles in the mouths
Of the suffering
Cough up blood
Pennies and guts
Down trodden muts
Keel under the pressure
Two eyed monsters roam
And the mechanical
Beasts groan
Spitting ever thick
Poison all the way home.
