Astute
Simple is not plain,
Easy hurl word writes;
Plain is not in vain,
Sense much gain that cites.
Astute that stern touch,
Simple laughs at grime;
Easy winds so much,
Make sense of the crime.
In your inward thoughts,
Watch how senses curl;
Strangle that lame plot,
Journey quest unfurls.
Stretch the wise words well,
Make troubles look *****;
Know deep sanguine spell,
Embalm death right here.
In the fading light,
Watch how oomph drains gall;
Seize fond soul trip bright,
Rise to greet the call.
