Baseball turned cap boys, screenagers,

Your sight crams me, my love and fiery foe.
If ardor was aimed to be creepily hotness.

Fallen

...I write of a love that's two cigars short in a box
With a chest of smoke and loves to lay on a bed of Roses
Made of yeast and dough, it's known years of surviving on the crams of a lovers bread

...Despised, Reviled, Rejected.

Before I was conceived, I heard of you,
Dumps for homeless migrants,
Debased and inferior.
Was beauty ever part of you?

This throng, that...

...Another Christmas day is finally here
The very thought fills me with such fear
I have to try and control my old Aunty Mable
Once she hits the gin she gets very unstable

not crackle his crocodile skin.

Crazy kids combine their fares

that shoot sincerity one second, hate the next

...Unrest in me
made me so and not that,
in whatever doings and whoever is me:
something crams upwards
weaves web over web

In silent filled churches, every man for himself in prayer
