A. Anarchy
Amber autumn aflame
An aroma of ash appeases the adamant arsonist; the artful anarchist
An audacious attempt at attacking back at our arbitrary accommodations
The ascended advocate us to abide as they affirm their advancement through annihilation
An abstract artifice, artificial affirmation of all aspects
Treated like an array of aliens in our allowed acropolis with the armor turned against us
Most amused with their asinine aspirations and amaurotic attractions
A few too apprehensive to argue and ask for an alternative, afraid of any altercation
But the agitated and annoyed assemble, ascertaining truth through awareness at every angle
Amateur acts of anger arise and accelerate, accompanying their adverse assault on our amendments
The alliance ablaze and amassing, anticipating an apocalyptic ambush
Absolution remains absent and anger becomes anxiety among those abandoned
The affluent assure abolishment for the average and all under
amaurotic sight
silvered lace curtain unseen
vibration rewards
nights dedicated labor
beauty and function entwined
A fathomless mystic charade
How alluring its serenade
Witness nature’s own masquerade
Mystique that cannot be portrayed
An entity most have betrayed
A spirit that must be obeyed
Awakened reflected cascade
Diaphanous and chaotic
Performance beyond hypnotic
Earth’s coryphée of erotic
Mistaken to be quixotic
A creature forcing psychotic
Its soul the purest narcotic
Intimate of all aquatic
Enigmatical their affair
Foxtrot brimming with debonair
Elementally torn despair
Amaurotic and unaware
Of essence’s lifeblood they share
Their fable ready to ensnare
Romance between water and air
Save them
from the innermost of
the mind bewildered
the heart diminished
the voice demure to shout
Make them
collapse
with gloomy smile
Fake
intentions frail
of body and soul
promiscuous
Collide
Set free
a sage
in every word
on any page
display the sly wisdom
on vertiginous stage
Break
the rules
with detest for
the inferior manner
of callow honesty
for humane
Sake
Divide
Spare
the nightmare
noxious conqueror
contamination developed
through ferocious heart
in asinine mind
enveloped within rotten flesh
Take
advantage of their
sophomoric trust
sedated senses
and
amaurotic affections
Wake the blight
before they collapse
Deride
