frelsi III - enn sem fyrr

enn sem fyrr
er gefið í skyn að okkur sé hollast
að meðtaka fagnaðarerindið möglunarlaust

og helst að lofsyngja frelsið
þar sem við krjúpum við gráturnar
á fjögurra ára fresti

óbundin og megum velja um
að bryðja sólarsellur eða álþynnur
næsta góðæristímabil

og skola þeim niður
með olíubrák úr ófundnum lindum
eða hlandvolgum heimskautasjó
