puzzling with all the words in the order
and changing them - around, and 'round again
effecting or affected by affective disorder
to sound around some pleasing refrain

what's to be gained, again, a chorus refrain
chanted softly by the author's low voice
into the next stanza to continue the chain

Speedier than lickety-split
Ready to jump tall structures in a hit
More powerful than an electric bolt 
In a solitary bounding jolt

Look up in the sky! 
It's a creature, lowly flying high

Hmm, what is it?

Our own selves underneath, the vapid worn-out...

    Car's faster.  

Sailed across the sea.
  Not anymore.
    Airplane's quicker. 

Typed on an old upright.
  Not anymore.
    Computer's friendlier.

Wrote people letters.
  Not anymore.

Existential crisis still encompasses mein kampf Valentine's day 2022

The following lines written disjointed fashion
attempting to mimic strategically 
moving pieces erratically on chessboard
ideally yielding ultimate resultant checkmate
opposing men captured for the queen to use.

His earnest quest for survival
Has meant off-and-on revival,
Bus boarding to far-off crusades,
For weeks avoiding nice brocades…

Not anymore one who’d bubble,
Sometimes chin with a week’s stubble:
Arch enemies in connivance,
The injurious for contrivance;
Had in dreams poisoned his noodle
And Christ said “Straight into puddle!”
Enemies flexing raw muscle,
God making...

I blazed a trail to the dark side of tomorrow
Then laid a highway to a city they call “sorrow”
More and more 
I needed to score
And too oft the pickings were far too...

brown fox jumps over the lazy dog,
fast as fired ballistic

yours truly a mere embryonic
nudnik, nonetheless I venture
