Tears Hot

Tried I once again to you hold
But-Alas- you had just been sold 
To The Shrewdest Merchant of Old, 
Whose merchandise should first go sold… 

Tears hot I tried to boldly check 
But soon guessed it correct not a wreck 
Whether ascended I a deck 
To cry or not, it is Death’s Peck!

The Ever Crazy With Power, 
Mankind hitting every hour, 
‘Dearest’ once treasured like Flower,
You would glimpse and turn A Tower! 

Giant I would hold by the tail,
So that he could never me fail
And just like that wrought his escape 
Me leaving with fooled mouth to gape…

Death its flogging does with wire 
Sadist that never could tire!
