With the votes counted,

The hungry approach.

Space keeps escape stunted.

Man on man inside a floating coach.

The judgment of all heavily blunted.

Drooling like roaches.

Cornered and whimpering,

Their brothers draw nearer.

Given up and cowering,

The meal draws silence from fear.

Last breaths thin as string.

These people tear him heart to ear.

A saturation of deep crimson

Gently paints computer cables

As a herd grazes as bison

On the flesh of the unable.

Such little hope for Simpson,

Who's put into deaths cradle.
