Whistle While You Work

Fierce is the feast of the bottom feeding

Consensus of the many to decist their further breeding

 

Upon broken promises their faith is kept

Shadows move about, prowling while they slept

 

From the soured breast the leaches suckle

They will work until they bodies tire, and their legs buckle

 

Atop their lifeless bodies a new crop will emerge

Their knowledge known from the surrounding scourge

 

Again they will strive for the dream

Falsley promised from their queen

 

The sick die off and the bodies mound

Enough for some to escape the chains from wich their bound

 

One by one they'll climb out of the hole.

Bringing death, increasing the toll

 

Fill it back in with those slain

Once it's full, we'll start again.
