Here lies a body
Whose mind once possessed
An obsession-thick and sticky...
One fine morning,
Under a trance,
The body jumped off
The balcony-third floor!
And fell and fell
But failed to stop the Fall...
Now,
That you're standing, stupefied,
Infront of the obelisk,
The body-confused and shocked,
Feels a strange premonition...
You are the next to follow,
And thousands will follow you soon!
