The monochrome martinet
|
His texture is starch
|
The song is a march
|
And from the beginning
|
His duende was winning
|
But though he's a worthy M.C,
|
He'll never be part of the three,
|
Orpheum hacked
|
Faustian pact
|
Three might be duende, in fact.
|
Necropolis blowing apart
|
A ghostly sight
|
Emerges bright
|
Hot from the embers
|
The first team member
|
Is hatching a dastardly plan
|
Like a bird with a dsastardly egg
|
Trapped in his time
|
Lost in his rhyms
|
One might be duende defined.
|
Apocyrphal espadrille
|
The shaper of dreams
|
Returns to the scene
|
No diorama
|
Could match his drama
|
A smile that would frighten the blind
|
The incubus freezes the mind
|
Fooled by his charm,
|
Right off the farm,
|
Sound might be duende's alarm.
|
Dystopia
|
Smashed to bits,
|
The keeper of dust,
|
The builder of rust,
|
When you discover
|
Sleep's older brother,
|
The trio is finally complete,
|
The trio has just won his seat,
|
Forged by their past,
|
First in their class,
|
Three might be duende,
|
Three might be duende,
|
Three might be duende at last.
