dark daughters

when there's nothing for us
no place to busy mens' hands
full-time moralists, protestors
gazers to the Dream-State

when our bubbles of bliss surface
what will mankind birth next?
too fearsome a dream to dream:
the dreamless one, the dead-eyed child

in line our daughters will march us
for our own stupefied 'good'
when there's nothing more for us
upon our heads, the hood.
