The Birdbath Embargo

Here in Munich's age-old centre [Apsley]

Michael holds his sway [loaf]

Because he's not just any renter [Apsley]

Bound to human pay [loaf]

Instead, good Michael earns his haunt [asdf]

In ways you wouldn't guess [Irene]

And though he now looks rather gaunt [P]

He need not convalesce [Kansas Sam]

He need not live a human span [loaf]

Nor walk the human mile [Beefy ]

Nor undergo a renal scan [loaf]

or carry a huge pile [Egbert]

For tourists love a haunted house [Irene]

As Michael loves a mark [Kansas Sam]

The ads say "Ghost of Michael Kraus... [Irene]

Encountered in the dark ..." [loaf]

Here in Munich's age-old hub [Beefy ]

Michael, silhouetted [loaf]

In the entrabce to the pub, [Apsley]

Leave no taste unwhetted [loaf]

Let he who dares ask Michael this: [Beefy ]

Is Darkness really Black? [Kansas Sam]

Be first to go upon the piss [Apsley]

And last to make it back [Roland]

And thus from Michael we must part now [Apsley]

The cut worm forgives the plow [William Blake]
