The Sinking City |
| Dear Mr Reed |
| Thank you for taking a few minutes |
| To read this missive riddled in mystery |
| Conceived to ease your disbelief |
| This city’s streets are dripping with intrigue |
| And the stink of conceit |
| Though dare I say it brings |
| With it a mystique: a miserable chic |
| Admittedly I concede |
| This isn’t your standard work |
| I am aware it sounds absurd |
| But that’s the way the candle burns |
| ‘Til dampened by the putrid pusillanimous manner |
| The ancient propaganda works |
| But excuse my lack of good manners |
| Call me Johannes Van Der Berg |
| Welcome to our town |
| You look as if you could use a drink |
| Bring along those sorrows you can’t drown |
| You can swim or you can sink |
| What do you think? |
| What do you think? |
| Welcome to our town |
| You look as if you could use a drink |
| Bring along those sorrows you can’t drown |
| You can swim or you can sink |
| What do you think? |
| Welcome, welcome, welcome |
| To the parochial local of Oakmont |
| Home of the hopeless down and outs |
| Other towns around us don’t want |
| Resting place of castaways |
| Forsaken and forgotten |
| Lost, adrift amidst the rotten bits of flotsam |
| Which have washed up |
| It’s a sodom for the sodden sods |
| Whose sullen souls are softened |
| By the soothing sounds of sirens' sighs |
| Rising up from rock bottom |
| The place lies on ley lines |
| The veins of ancient bloodlines |
| That flush away the sacred flesh |
| To make way for the flood times |
| The antediluvian realm of Cthulu |
| Is answering to a new axiom |
| Where anchovies — humans sans sanity — loom into view with clarity |
| The Pantheon tell terrible parallel parables |
| And are washing away any arable land |
| Unbearable and incomparable pain |
| No normal mortal can even stand |
| Welcome to our town |
| You look as if you could use a drink |
| Bring along those sorrows you can’t drown |
| You can swim or you can sink |
| What do you think? |
| What do you think? |
| Welcome to our town |
| You look as if you could use a drink |
| Bring along those sorrows you can’t drown |
| You can swim or you can sink |
| What do you think? |
| Welcome to our town |
| You look as if you could use a drink |
| Bring along those sorrows you can’t drown |
| You can swim or you can sink |
| What do you think? |
