Once Again
3/22/15
Once again
Everything eventually comes to an end
Anytime, not just through the months ahead
What good is it to just pretend?
The recipe
For longevity
Was a secret remedy
And one of the ingredients was sesame
Allegedly
The temperature was seventeen
And I had a full head of steam
Because of something they said to me
But I let it be
Coincidentally
What was done next was carried out with discrepancy
The house was squalid
And barely solid
But the place had a draw of solace
There was a tree that was an almond
And a black cauldron
Which contained knowledge
In a stew made with the involvement of olives
