The Moving Statue

As Pan Goatee serial killer slashed the fat ugly female cyclist to death
making sure the aesthetically facially challenged female blimp was devoid of breath,
The statue of Neb-Senu
being from planet Nibiru
moved in its glass case in Manchester
dancing like Jack Benny's butler Rochester
in this museum inspired by the Muses nine
spirit beings found it fine
especially entity Neb-Senu
when he moved from Park Avenue
when the Wall Street banker he possessed
lost an encounter with a bus in much distress
so it returned to its statuely home
devoid of constantly ringing phone
into the statuette donated in 1933
the year Hitler took Germany
and stamped it with his destiny
a statue made about 1800 B.C.
when desert devil gods roamed free
and the Nile River took its star Sirius-ly.
What rough beast? Its hour come round at last
stops at McDonald's for breakfast?
One slouching towards Bethlehem
waiting to be born
a statue that moves
at blast of car horn
it eventually moves 180 degrees
but moves even more
at a patron's sneeze.
