Polemic

      Cross over, cross over
      Without
      Utility or art.
      Nothing is of any use anymore.
5     I tell you.
      I saw three grasshoppers
      Sifting on a leaf
      Until, until
      Until
10    They had eaten it up,
      I dreamed I was the king of the world
      And rode the seas for horses.
      I dreamed I was the king of the world
      And rebuilt all the churches.
15    I saw three grasshoppers
      Living in a dream.
      They sat on a leaf,
      They ate it up.
