Commandment castles

Sanding on granite
The spores of tommorrow
Heat waving day
Sending suffragettes out hunting
Hunting for huns
Or whatever equivalent
The masks take
The swallows taken
Arthur's ransoming task
Amazons of reasoning
Shark tooth tasting
Unpleasant to breathe
Untesticly well
Beyond the footbridge
Breeds the rabbits
Leaving feet behind
For some lucky winner
Some unlucky winner
And the truth maligns
A minor tour
And the rats begin
First one bed then the other
Until there was no escaping them
Food for the foder fuhrer
Some spiegelman advice
And the gustus restored
Some here some there
Until there was no escaping them
Just one rat trap after another
Scream permitting
But that was part of the joke
Just when one path parts
Robert takes the frosting
Divergent animals of another brain
And the coke hat winds
The interpretations wrong
The hats wrong
So I sent them swimming
Up the mats down the aisles
Until their eyelets open
The string cheese wins
Trusting the brain to market strategy
Opening casket just in time
Dropping flowers blow by blow
And the capers kept sinking
Under floorboarding wasp nests
Needling pavement
Exploring the door
Thinking of diving
Thinking no more
The cat escape opens
Dog engineered
When commerse commensed
A laughing face
A punched nose
Putrified waters
An unclean hand
A bible left behind
Interpretations wrong
In a washtub of sand
In a washtub of sand.
