Ooze

Echoes of unease
Blurry poise dumps peace
Blunt noise does not cease

Stress in sharp duress
Morbid fate grips mess
Loud voices address


Transient cords now spring
Watch deep ooze time flings
Struggling vivid things


Here thrills and spills wet
That and this and that
Wager on lost bet


Variety seems nice
Traces of odd spice
Vice in lame advice


Fear now loiters long
Can the fake seem strong,
Or know right from wrong?


Zest seeps instantly
Oozing energy
Can joy feel lonely?


No much more to say
To myself today
Survive life's foul play


Struggle with more wit
Embrace bit by bit
Exult style that fits
