joyless great aunt Heather
in the worst shape ever
my great Aunt Heather
usually under the weather
good thoughts? Never.
Resigned to gloom forever.

Searching Within the Joyless Heart
Every lonesome heart
seeks that happiness
not easily found;
and however brief
and meaningless
it might be, somehow
it's the ultimate comfort
awaiting hope!

Joyless Joseph
Wordless worries wander wearily working wayward,
Towards thoughts transgressing truth’s textured tide.
As always acknowledging agnosticism’s appeal,
Essence easily evaporates, exeunt Emile.
Very virtuous violent vowels vociferously validate,
Sanctimonious sessions some subtly sacrosanct.
Is it in incrementally immense ingenious imaginations,
Or ontology’s omniscience overcoming oceanic
