We Doomed!

Elegy Written in a Prison Courtyard
{to Allen Ginsberg: a voice in perilous times}

Whom torture?
We torture them!
Whom torture?
We torture them!
Whom torture?
We torture them!
Whom torture?
We torture them!

Whom torture?
You torture you!
Whom torture?
You torture you!
Whom torture?
You torture you!
Whom torture?
You torture you!

What do we do?
Who do we torture?
What do we do?
Who do we torture?
What do we do?
Who do we torture?
What do we do?
Who do we torture?

What do we do?
You torture! You torture them!
What do we do?
You torture! You torture them!
What do we do?
We torture! We torture them!
What do we do?
We torture! We torture them!

Whom torture?
We torture you!
Whom torture?
We torture you!
Whom torture?
You torture you!
Whom torture?
You torture you!

We doomed!
