Bitterness
Espresso brew with bitter taste
Gall fashions screw in awkward haste
Bitter the feel of odd lot here
Gall offers chill from sweets most clear
Forfeit the same sense of sweet taste
Coffee grooms game with bitter waste
Real life's a tact of bitter-sweet
Act flavours pact in fact you greet
Profound the maze where works meet world
Dance dreamy daze with leaping swirls
Mad world needs peace in wars that toll
Let anger cease and purge mad poll
Here just like this, madness frames vile
Seek then sure bliss beyond mad style
If you must know the days ahead
Evil will grow with dying dread
Confront conflict with faith and love
Then treat or trick transits above
