Kit Kelen #274 - we slaughtered the camel who knew the way

275

we slaughtered the camel who knew the way

after Gyula Illyes

we slaughtered the camel who knew the way...

had our final meal today

all drifted to sleep

which is a long long blink

and so the butchers came

and ratatatat

pop gun boys despatched

the village and another

and snickersnack

vorpal blade boys went

and that was ghetto gone

who went?

who is it we'll see no more?

who never got to old age?

someone told them to do it

some god's voice

got between the ears

as in a dream

the voice came

somewhere in the world

it's happening right now

someone is receiving instructions

someone is having the dream

shall we wake them

might not the candle go out?

the sky drifts

and the eye drifts

and the mind must roll between
