Such Is Life...Confusing
Infernal fire, Saturnus satire
The kiln that melts the satin strings
and stirs things far beyond belief
The relief it brings, infamously bought
then intimately brought
As life lessons sing about everything
so incessantly taught
Evocation retort against love
Where hearts beat to aching extent
and pain stings as incandescent
as lightning strikes from above
Leaving malformed and dented
the punch bag of pride
As the moral gloves come off,
unintended but evanescent
To retaliate with subtle strikes
and fight back against the mauling
of purpose that died
