deride, deceive...
  your almighty dreaded crumbling path
escalate and receive
  momentary gifts unrivaled wrath

what stays straight
  ignoble, steadfast illuminated so bright
turn back now, ... or wait?
foaming clouds in darkest night

I heard tales of unmet joys
rivals of men and chances
   faced with anger and misguided ploys
far away passions, angry glances

thousands of days shackled together
pomp and passions unruly tools
lying in pastures amidst golden heather
all made and sealed for irreverent fools
