Donald ate beans to full capacitance
Added pitted prunes for extravagance
He courted the town strumpet
She said, Put down your trumpet
All Donald could produce was flatulence

In the midst of expectations
she learnt acceptance
far away from grievance
she practiced transitions.
She doesn’t seek perfections
just some inductance
and some capacitance
are what lead to her aspirations.
I'm not a race you'd dare to run,
Love no one's creed, God knows whose son,
Is life roulette or dominos?
Cross "T's," dot "I's, and slash zeros,
Improvements brought to Burning Bush?
I'm Rampant Straight, a Royal Flush!
Bloodsucker's victims love their stakes,
Don't ever learn from fortune's breaks,
Who loves the North when trouble's South!!
I flow, more river than a mouth
That swallows hope then spits remorse,
My droppings? Flagrant intercourse,
Won't beg for quarter, court no f**ks,
Capacitance? Magnetic flux!
Exploding vacuum - here and gone!
Content! Some call me Satan's spawn!

In every breath I fill you.
I love you.
In your heart I am beating.
When you remember,i do.
In every breath I fill you.
I love you.
Is the real love that you are mine.
You,in me,,remain capacitance.
I do not want you the day when.
Even when my breaths is not mine.
I see my everything only in you.
You are my angel of love.
What should I know,why are you always?
I think of myself.
In everything in I keep you.
I love you.
In flux are temperance of today
capacitance changing ways
impurities slag to slowly fade
forging what may made
Anvils ring as hammers strike
developing strength from efforts might
sword of truth is spirits flight
above the vulgar earthly fight
Excalibers legend sword in stone
awaits the faithful to atone
arise the self to royal heights
comfort found in heavenly delight....
