Augustinian Chronicle: Youthful Indiscretion

Loitering in the lair of incontinence without askance Chaufeured by alter ego looking for any appealing circumstance Besieged by an uncontrollable libido that craves a licentious remonstrance Bridled by an insecure complex that insists on a meaningless dalliance Bethrothed a licentious title by my consort's malfeasance Bartering for a brokered, fatuous, amorous romance Initiating a coarse, trite parlance Scoring a lusty, lively, lurid dance Surrendering to the leveraged buy out with due penance Shearing, shackled inhibitions for a night of undocumented remittance Shackled by a conscience that bears the reproach of my debauched demonstrance Shielded from the mediating law of recompence by my willful ignorance Surrounded by the guilt of my insatiable intemperance Struggling to find the source of my carnal provenance  Sheltered by a boorish pride that stifles availing repentance Separated from a mitigating mercy by a lingering recalcitrance Sequestered from a graceful respite because of my strident indifference Shamelessing skirting sanctifying succor through my froward inconstance Stubbornly languishing in the throes of an indomitable, fleshly resistance Shaking as I continuously ponder the deeds of my immoral exuberance  Spontaneously trembling as my jaded psche haunts with an eternal vigilance
