Vermin

The rats on/ this earth/ have nothing on you

An insult/ to those which/ crawl the sewers



Devourer, plunderer, deceptor



Sniff out a/ scheme/ and leave the scraps behind

Voracious, insatiable? A nose attuned to greed



Devourer, plunderer, deceptor



Evade all traps

and come out gnashing, snarling, gnashing, snarling!



Disguises are many

Media pawn or man on the street



They'll scavenge your emotions

and leave you diseased

They'd steal a last possession

And smile as you concede



Devourer, plunderer, deceptor
