The meaning of hate
If  X is part of
The alphabet
 
While Y is the
Question that follows after
 
As A,B,C,D,E
Are the multiple choices
You got out at sea
 
When team Q , aRe

While M is the                                                              ­            
First set of twins
Cloned from N
Thus V and W
Followed the trend.
 
Well the sky

For K,L and M
As I is for I
And I alone (I am the being).

the yuppies
shuck and jive
for a buck.
trembling reverence
to thrive

deference
for a buck.
character peripheral
regardless, you don't ****
trust
you don't ****

oh I love that film
that music, amazing
regardless of how dim
irrespective of how un-entertaining
for a buck.
don't even fret
you don't ****
trust
you don't ****

even when looked as lower
it don't matter much
you don't fit the profile
it's ok, still love ya
i'll wait and smile
with baited breath
until eternity.

man is fallible
he'll change his ways
just smile
and wait, with baited breath
for that wondrous day!
maybe I don't ****
I'll wait
for the sake of the buck.

I sleep

            diagonally

on    a    queen size


           mattress.

We break bread with bricks.
Catch our thumbs every time.
Blame those neighborhood ******!
Isn't misplaced hate sublime?
