No Impediment To Triumph (Bhopal)

Just reeks, just reeks of a squalid victory
It drifts downwind does this squalid camaraderie
Play to the gallery with wooly humanity

As value above - well above the valueless
Pumped up, trumped up, shrugged off

No impediment...
No impediment...
No impediment to triumph

Rings burned
Rings burned into the retina, transfixed
Back-handed unity
Bhopal gags on the reverie

As value above - well above the valueless
So easily slipped are shackles of culpability

No impediment...
No impediment...
No impediment to triumph
No impediment to triumph

Brandish the torch that shines no light
On the wretched and malformed
At pains to sustain
But only thing sustained
Is free rein for a mass poisoner

Brandish the torch that shines no light
On the wretched and malformed
At pains to sustain
But only thing sustained
Is free rein for a mass poisoner

No impediment, no impediment...
A triumph? No
