Soon to be
Satan/'/s delight
Alice White
Marauder of flight
From a world deemed
Not quite right
Born of a red and gold sky at night
J.D. called from a field of rye
Later I learned
He too had died
Words were delivered by a Mister Merry
To a southbound ferry
Oh how bizarre, they traveled so far
Scritti Politti were the words
Written on the city walls
Before they all took the fall
Dismissed by a world amiss
A voice cried out from the sky
Heard only by you and I
Reared its ugly head and demanded from within
Wait and listen for the dead
Until then, remain silent
And listen to Led
When she was seven
A blue oyster of the occult
Showed her
A stairway to heaven.

Child of the blight
Soon to be
Satan/'/s delight
Alice White
Marauder of flight
From a world deemed
Not quite right
Born of a red and gold sky at night
J.D. called from a field of rye
Later I learned
He too had died
Words were delivered by a Mister Merry
To a southbound ferry
Oh how bizarre, they traveled so far
Scritti Politti were the words
Written on the city walls
Before they all took the fall
Dismissed by a world amiss
A voice cried out from the sky
Heard only by you and I
Reared its ugly head and demanded from within
Wait and listen for the dead
Until then, remain silent
And listen to Led
When she was seven
A blue oyster of the occult
Showed her
A stairway to heaven.
