Sotto Poet Poet Quintain (Sicilian)

Notes About The Poem

Shades and Symbols

Vitriolic stances generate vicious marks. 
Sweltering, an irritating swamp of sadness. 
The bold spirit is infused with pitiful dark. 
Levied by cruel words exuding madness. 
Each genius suffers fools that ruin their harks. 

Parades of enormous egos in the sky.
Thinking, they are clever in their eyes. 
If you follow the fool, you will run dry.
This sense of pride links the beat to the rise.
The patient’s head horn was extremely high.

If you seek fame, they shun the white feathers.
Going by water and fire pulls you near.
Stiff work is vital for raising bright ethers.
Each step takes us closer, great or mere.
Bear you via a mirror and dispel your pressure.
