A curious confection Of mystery and death Of hated perfection And reasonable breath Of nightmarish lines and finds Of aching bones And too many land mines A horridous groan Of every reasonable thought That is slipped from your grasp A life that ought to be wrought And ends with short gasp Taking care to not ruffle the feathers Of the divine Or trouble the lives of your betters Oh world would you ever be mine It's hard to define whatever I could say That are constructed with truths and lies If only I could live 'till may But oh how my time flies A sweet sorrowful fairwell To my past to ever last And to the future pray tell I hope I go fast

The sweetest is the Bitterest
A curious confection Of mystery and death Of hated perfection And reasonable breath Of nightmarish lines and finds Of aching bones And too many land mines A horridous groan Of every reasonable thought That is slipped from your grasp A life that ought to be wrought And ends with short gasp Taking care to not ruffle the feathers Of the divine Or trouble the lives of your betters Oh world would you ever be mine It's hard to define whatever I could say That are constructed with truths and lies If only I could live 'till may But oh how my time flies A sweet sorrowful fairwell To my past to ever last And to the future pray tell I hope I go fast
