orange burrito
dripping with enchilada
give him all the sauce
his life one long purge
gulls the old bats among us
in their cave so dark
high above we wait
while he plays us nonchalant
’til we swat the fly
silky bubbles ooze
suspended in excrement
of his guilty gut
his kindness shines bald
in the verdict told on him
judgment’s noose was tight
