Cerdes (Outside The Gates Of)

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
(Brooker / Reid)Outside the gates of Cerdes sits the two-pronged unicornwho plays at relaxation time a rhinestone flugelhornwhilst mermaids lace carnations into wreaths for ailing whalesand Neptune dances hornpipes while Salome sheds her veilsPhallus Phil tries peddling his pewter painted potbut Sousa Sam can only hear the screams of Peep the sotwho only sips his creme de menthe from terra cotta cupsand exhales menthol scented breath whilst spewing verbiage upDown technical blind alleys live the wraiths of former dreamsAnd Greeps who often crossed them are no longer what they seemAnd even Christian Scientists can but display marble plaquesWhich only retell legends whilst my eyes reach out for factsYeah, my eyes reach out for facts
