give me-the bowie knife of repartee, nothing more satisfying than the quick stabbing, a good blood letting, in your genteel face, no hellish moderated pace, the energetic plunge of a quick lunge into the woebegone, long after you count the meter tempo’d use fingers and toes, but needing to hold your nose, to include that extra grace note, that belies denies the harmony the tules and rules of calling order to control the roost,  sine-one is a victim of a down and virtuous ***** verbal slashing! count my syllables, never, let my stanzas run free, like an African tiger, with the goat of format mounted in between his teeth, bloodied and dripping dead, the squealing of hyper innocente, silent after cries of, kind sir, me thinks thou protest too much! we can squish and twist our holy words, into formal tuxedos of cantankerous arrowed arrogance, but know this, roses are read, them violets, blue, have turned millions of children to avert their eyes from anything thereafter that was classified, notarized, canonized, sanctified as the write rules of poetry peals of pearls are born with parentage of a lousy grain of sand, the words etched in the lines upon my hand, are lifelines of sidewalk cracks, discarded candy wrappers, the twisted ends cigarette butts, used as proof that ash and dust are the genetic source material of uncommon great composition, given to those who love the common touch of leaves of grass, thstbeneath the heat of the sun that exposes the nothingness of bitterness know no one can run from the golden visibility, of a sun, talent in pursuit of egoism is a long road to a short history yeah.
