Orwell of Sagittarius

On the Eve of St Orwell's Day
The squaw woman brought truth to bare
In scripted pose and statuary dish
A recipe changed from Bollusk to bisque

And the night crept up like Jupiter
A false Eden in the sky way main
To porridge or to bed
The urchin s running unkempt and bold

With prophetic dreams untold
Except in murmuring drag
Their nightly secrets keep
The recipe will in the morning come

Or porridge be damned with my spoon
I'll spoon your sugar until you sweet
Come nether or come neat

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
