Twisted

The same
Old fashion sweeps
Due blame
On thoughts we keep


She strays
With a sly poise
Odd ways
Of twisted voice


The clash
Of deceit here
Tricks dash
Of needless fear


She speaks
As if to sway
Odd streaks
Of clots that stay


Mad mind
Can usurp thoughts
In kind
As blisters dot


She screams
And calls out names
Curds cream
To cast odd blame


Trite makes
Emerge to fit
Strange takes
Of crazy bits


She hears
Forfeit cast loss
Right here
In fickle toss


Mad things
Come out to play
Sad flings
In anxious say


She thinks
To swing the bat
To link
Non-rancid fat


Sad tale
Of a lost soul
No sale
In broken whole
