Analysis of Check Six
Doug Volgenau 1963 (Connecticut)
Clandestine shit, Bro'!
Surveilled infinite...
straight-up check yo' six.
Signs hidden within
signs...countermeasure;
camouflaged in Time's
shadow. Passed cycle
bravado flowing
in for all killers
unconscionable.
Recon isolate...
lost jump survivor.
Lust...remorseless death
distributor; bait
blackened by Sunlight's
wrath. Fattened on
Gluttony's gold calf...
useless whoremonger
cannot wait longer...
