****** sharp nay! blunt
A sword tamed with cruelty
****** wounding my hand
For five years! I can now let go

Adage!
Blunt the sharp edge
No fear! enough warmth
****** first pretty flowers
****** then adders!

Mine plea
****** out! appease my voice
Adage!
With a trumpet Singing the truth!

****** performed magic
"Paved" the maddened path!, "sobs"
"Lowered" the hidden cut!, "sobs"
"Admonished" false approval practitioners!, "sobs"
"Amused" my growing siblings!, "sobs"

A blossoming flower apprises
Colored with lines of liberty
Preaching smiles! adage!
Breaking the spell of thorny roots

****** gone future
Roots come future
Blood soiled hands gone future
Smiling painted flag come future

Meeks as friends fury
the forbidden scent is near
So foul but though as essential
Friends weep upon its knocking
some even flew off their souls
The chocking smell was now the life....

Super! I found it!
I'll chase the bugs before cook
My answer short after the pray
No delay a book!

I hate mad though in it my dreams have met
I'll squash the bugs ! upon the edge
A flame of prestige is now my pet
My gold! praise thee! praise thee! I pledge

Empowered "solace" I bring
On Mad, bugs rewarded with my bill
From a gathering of toil my gold out like a spring
No untamed bugs! to silence, my tongue their pill

Come lets harvest and pace
And these shadows, twist and leave frown
And tomorrow? Yes! more gold! more space!
To write off the shadows, I trick its white but no brown!
