Rhyme --- 2025 January 12

[*] [*] [*] [*] [*] [*] [*] [*] [*]

If age is a constant then daydreams and nightmares 
will cease to exist when the best of life is achieved
as maturity stabilizes at a level of immaturity favors
the innocence in confidence-mired ill-retrieved
those hopelessly enwrapped by rhetorical triggers
stemmed by the proposer amongst the ill-believed
'tis liken a heist at gunpoint to corner those regretters
to have brains (methinks) to cusps their mind deceived 
and churned their souls to enter their relievers
and entertain the premature notion that they conceived 
participants to ascertain the wherewithal of achievers
better or best consciously the line of inquiry perceived
to mull over and enter the zone as one of the leavers 
to post with the best, to the winners be my best-wished.
