TAWNY PERIL!
Grasping at a fair mistake
Grinding to a dusty fate
Guarding Heaven at the gate
To gaping aspiration
CLINGING LIE!
Inertly you ignore my plea
Cloud each endeavour heedlessly
Refuse to set my pale mote free
To certain consummation
DUSTY TERMINATOR!
I know some demon dispossessed
Habituates your grainy depths
To cause me unrelenting stress
To rob me of my sure success
To terminate my swift progress
And mock me … for I am obsessed
With this infatuation
But suddenly … on some caprice
At last you tender your release
But …
Inexpedient to the end
To gritty Hell I’ll redescend
Dishevelment I must attend
While philosophically I’ll emend
Ignoble degradation
