THE SPIDER

Pinning the cloud
Shooting the clown down.
Winning the vote
Hooting the voices down.
Politics is a tantra
An art form of the powerful.

Bullet to the brain
Scavenging licker's drool.
Pallet to the fool
Managing the Animal Farm.
"We want human rights!"
That's the strap-line, means no harm.

Spill the blood
And call it sacrifice.
Medals and Badges
Even the Nobel prize.
Kill the cob-web; not the spider!
The tantra continues in a world-wide web.
