Marketed Cattle

In honest hands, our's a world embalmed in sleep. Stars are put-to-bed where beasts of burden weep The shadow that lingered all day long behind returns to its water lily roots maligned. It's here there are cries men carry to their grave that falls into a melancholy malaise. And make-a-bad-marriage with toil until death, that haunts his every waking strenuous breath. Such days as these-were-spent-as marketed cattle The price of which wouldn't warrant a gavel rendered in harmony or disharmony, Such hungry mouths don't dislike impartially. They may be loyal to a point but beware Ah, every soul on Earth is extraordinaire. Such brutes and creatures can take retribution and so become learned in jurisprudence.
