Best Swarms Poems
Coercing the SwarmsEmerge the invocations of begotten falsehood.
Lying dormant.
My screams no longer withheld.
Anointing savagery bred of ancient tongues.
This depraved submergence beckons in a righteous hand.
Born of opposition in the courts of folly, enormities ascend to the arch of flame.

Routines go on
Beautiful -- wet, too...
