Having drifted apart
Having drifted apart,
Why should folk
Despise each other? For
Not known and unknowing
Times there were once before…
Blowflies
Evil people
that feed on lies
corpulent as
grotesque summer flies
gorged
on what even
carrion birds
despise.

Sad Would I Be
Sad would I be
Where it not for thee
My foolish pride thy power despise
It can not triumph o’er the wise
