the box lights up and the curtain parts
the chorus line winds up, stutters and starts
where's he, when's here?
what's what now?
who pays the butcher and who plays the cow?
here he comes up around the bend
elimination in his eyes
and a shotgun in his hand
there he is in the royal home
drinking from the cup
just to piss on the throne
the puppets perform for the love of their string
painted and perfumed
they dance and sing
they gleet their prattle, and they say it's so
bleating cattle in a fixed dumb show
coming down the hill and coming down fast
he steps on the lines
and mows down the cast
the narrator meets his just due fate
his silence announces the changing at the gate
