Smoke screen
Smoke screen,
we’re dedazzled,
for a moment, unfrazzled,
a nation believes, 
in its billion dreams,
a billion nightmares,
a million screams,
forgotten,
shrouding a clamouring silence,
the leash is short,
our bark softens,
as the bite sharpens,
we’re muzzled,
the eternal jigsaw puzzle,
and our young,
heroes and heroines, unsung,
youth, watching the uncouth,
watching the regression,
the oppression,
will they leave the gloom,
or will a million flowers bloom,
but for now…
hello darkness, my old fiend.

ED, meenie, money mo
ED, meenie, money, mo,
catch the launderer by the toe,
while he weakens, don’t let him go,
ED, meenie, money, mo.
