  • A CAROL'S CAROL

    I am an epic


    I am the adventure

    I am the song

    For thee on the manger



    I am the x-mas spirit

    I am the humble man's joy

    I am the humming in his heart

    For thee whenever you're hurt



    I am the birds of the air

    I am the freedom of the slaves

    I am the fantasy of the hermit

    For thee to feel the dream summit



    This is a carol's carol

    For every carol deserves a tune

    For lifting mere mortals

    High above the moon



    This is a carol's carol

    For every carol deserves a tune

    The stench from the latrineKnocks you down from afar!You enter;It is as if you have entered Into a lions mouth.v The smell of JeyesAnd the smell of dungRise to the roof
    The entire floorIs covered with human dungAll the tribes of human dung!Dry dungs and dysenteryOld dungs and fresh dungsYoung ones that are still steaming,Short thick dungsSitting like hillsSnake like dungsCoiled up like pythonsLittle ones just squatting thereBig ones lying on their sidesLike tree trunks
    Some dungs are red like ochreOthers are yellowLike the ripe mango,Like inside ripe pawpawOthers are black like the soil,Like the soil we useFor smearing the floorSome dungs are of mixed Colors!
    Vomit and urine flow byAnd on the wallsThey clean their anusAnd there are writings on the wallsCut with knives

Fish cakes

Alas a fish cake.

Yet more fish cakes

Guess what ... yeah ... fish cakes.

The end of the fish cakes
