Turn away; check your manicure;
Pull on your gloves. Take time; make sure
The hat brim curves though the hat's straight.
Give her your arm. Let the fools wait;
They act like they've someplace to go.

A slight limp; just enough to see,
Pass on, and infect history.

In a stranger's gut, waiting its term,
Each thought, each step lies; the roots spread.

When we took 'Red Berlin' we found
We always worked best underground.
So; the vile body turns to spirit
That speaks soundlessly. They'll hear it.

Of what became of her. - Cyrus Cassells
