"The Nescience of Norbert" (poem)

The nescience of Norbert
was known to one and all
it was clear to everybody
he will take that smashing fall

He will fail in his thirst for kingship
in his lust for a golden crown
but it doesn't really matter
with so many in that town

Norbert had lots of money
theft is easier than thought
but when it comes to thinking
Norbert gives us nought

I will break it; I will burn it
I will set the kingdom free
the more I take from groundlings,
the more for you and me

We don't need them; we won't feed them
the workers had their day
We will stomp them into sawdust
we will make those fuckers pay

- Silas
