Camera On...

The smell of burnt blood,

The showcase of corpse,

Hunger,pain and oppression,

Fashion,sex

Lascivious life of multiplex.

Light,camera,action

Grey faces smile with dejection.

Humanity is being strangled

by the shadowy hands,

Jack-o'-lantern we are all,

sinking day by day

In the quicksand.
