Eyeless Woman Of Wakanda

Ten billion people trudge hard city streets
in endless circles of labor and play,
while eyeless woman sings where sewage rots,
our empire ruled over by the Playboy.

The zombies staring at bright smartphone screens
flow through the traffic lights of stop and go
while eyeless woman sings to cheering fans
who pray to no one in the empty sky.

Policemen shoot the unarmed black man down
in hail of prejudice fired at his back
while eyeless woman flutes on his arm bone
to show the way the Playboy codes his trick.

Since politics is the brutal chess game
we conjugate as predator and prey,
the eyeless woman prophesies our doom
when we agree to be fooled by his ploy.

The Playboy steals gold coins we earn each day,
and we work hard while he golfs with our balls,
but eyeless woman exposes his lie,
hypnotized by fake news of his smooth spells.

When Robin Hood tries to retrieve our wealth
the Playboy crucifies him on the lawn
while eyeless woman teaches honest stealth
that justifies taxation of his gain.

The truth you know is not the truth I know
so we play different games in world war three
while eyeless woman crowns new divine Sleuth
on quest to restore sacred liberty.

The Sleuth unmasks the Playboy as the fraud
who plays as president of nothing real
while eyeless woman transforms into God
who builds new church from invisible wall.
