Temporal Dilettante Journalist

Listen to poem:

Temporal Dilettante Journalist David J Walker no-thing need not name the nameless breaks the morning in disguise shakes the shame and wakes the shameless quench tormented turbid eyes the bootless errand realized who shakes the hand but shuns the banquet a polymath of nullity a picnic spread on follies blanket the argot of a fervent plea omnifarious frivolity dante sings symphonic anthems measured meters latin chants pardons plied to paphian sanctions the queen retorts in satin rants a paupers portion the monarch grants bemoans the message minimalized

Another great write David. I hold my hands up and say I had to look up several words but this only added to my intrigue and took nothing away from your wonderful poem, its cadence and your equally excellent reciting of it. Cheers - Gary
