Ag Cornet Tone



Silver tongue money sign blow
bellow ballast 
moral bankruptcy notes
Reprobate shekel vocal chords
toot the $eductive $ound of the crafty coin jingle — 
Filthy lucre windpipes
utter-ly craving more and more

Tainted dross lips blare grifter bluesy groans, 
lover of the honk heist Tap scale shrill moans

Pied piper pickpocket player  (such a theft bar clone)
blow an Iscariot number
with a snatched purse   pirate dirge   Ag cornet tone

Argentum coffer con-duit
continuously ear play the bandito music,
that Gehazi leer song

Let the pilfering notes fill the covetous air
with a subtil silverware sound ...
Polluted decibel waves b crooked cavalier,
a-plundering thoughts abound —  

Fork tongue reed bark paper lust promises;
empty air promissory echoes,
so wallet stolen wrong

Eclectic as ever, RomWar, and quite scathingly compelling. Great write.
