Love & Desire
Fleet Street.

In London-town of yore but

yet, even to this very day,

slovenly bovine herd

together on conveyor belts.

Chewing cud, eschewing

mud, unconsciously mooving

to have their carotids cut.

Alas, indignant adults,

aren’t we, too, on a slow

march to our own deaths?

Like vermin labyrinthine

lab rats trapped in some

spider’s web—we’re all

ultimately pawns in some

twisted game of Chess.

“mud, unconsciously mooving”

— Fleet Street.
