Ladies Of Babylon by Nobody: 1:06pm On Nov 07, 2015 |
Ladies Of Babylon White turned black Eyes shut down Like a switch was off Darkness fled Consciousness adjusted The earth yet spins Plastic smiles Made of rubber Robbed man's engine Called by its name; Lively unconsciousness Devil also's loved Wrinkled mien Portraying innocence Stereotype of'em all Samson already died Next in queue, Hitler of your own After World War 3 Believe again Be robbed again Dimples at first sight Pimples at last fight The ladies of Babylon ~Agba Sixtus ©2015 Cc gracile 1 Like |

TheAgba:7th & 8th line, methinks is tautology 13th line(mien) is a typo ryt? aside that and the fact that its very encoded, its a beautiful poem ![]() |

gracile:It is "mien" ,it ain't a typo . "Plastic smile " is just to say the smile is a fake one. "Made of rubber" is to say the smile is flexible and of any rubber attribute . Also it's seductive, so could rob a man's heart . What do you think ? |
