[ SK ] Hamper Scamper Stomp Chomp

  
static  
 
louder grows the static  
out of nowhere in particular  
erratic  
 
gnashing  
 
teeth gnashing in sporadic feasting  
unearthly stampeding  
beastly feeding  
 
devouring the known universe  
everywhere it seems  
psychotic chainsaws chewing  
the Void beyond revealed  
gobbling up future prospects  
childish hopes and dreams  
just idled planes littering  
an abandoned airfield  
 
stomp, stomp  
your feet in protest  
 
hamper, scamper  
don't linger languish like the rest  
 
chomp, chomp  
continuing to eat, eat, eat  
 
consuming the beams supporting  
this tower dark with uncertainty  
What's to become of you?  
What's to become of me?  
 
What's to become of lazy Craiggy Weggy Toomey?  
 
hamper scamper stomp CHOMP
