Memory shed and memory saved,

Confusion and delusion to fault the brave;

Gone is sanity and simple understanding,

Deathly visions destructive and demanding,

It requires a great commanding.

Gone is the mind and gone is the soul,

Washing clean, loss of the obscene,

So that the self may not drown in sickening dreams

Of all that was good, wholesome and believed.

Tasteless and thoughtless treatment,

The piece is devoured without peace,

Upon which the tormentors do feast,

Hungrily stared down by their leader, a beast.

Taken and broken, an experiment's token,

Shattering into a smattering of whimpering, curling selves.

It does not end well, both have fell;

There is no hope for him, you can tell.

And so, he and Washington shall rot,

The Director without care or sympathetic thought,

Tribute to the hellish things you have forgot.
