Tainted Tongue

*Tainted Tongue*

turbulent torrent puking
rustic waves, feigning
passion gulping gaunt
horizon; hoisted bow
receding thuds pounding
punctured mists mumbling

thirty one years
creature in tier;
human, ape, bear

bounty beards blushing
farcical feets' felony
trudged earth moaning

sans tamed language
yet Island's sage.
