Of foolery,
Dunces
In dance of dunces,
In colours reminiscent
Of crackpots,
Gyrate
In the gyroscope
Of guttural cants,
Cants
Of demented demagoguery.
They dance on platform
Of denounced podium
With stream of sweat
Cascading
On donned coats of idiocy.
When the cradle crackles
In the coming inferno,
At the demise
Of degenerate dementia,
We will dance
Our dream dance.
