Darkest of the dark
Sleekest of the sleek
Loveliest of the lovely
Deepest of the deep
Spin to win
Rest assured
Mocking bird
Mocking bird
Built it's nest
It flew, it soared
Wasn't easy
More a chore
Confident?, sure
Why, what for?
What's expected
Still unsure
Rising sun
Sinking moon
Hour late
Still too soon
Draw your gun
At high noon
Single living
Gloom and doom
Life and death
What's the score?
In the spotlight
Still ignored
Rotten apple
To the core
War!
And nothing more
And nothing more.

Still ignored
Rotten apple
To the core

And nothing more
And nothing more.
I like to rhyme words and sometimes it's revealing. Even if it isn't really all that appealing.
