And intention to rhyme
An intention...

Generic Germane Groveling Guy Still Wallows In Weltschmerz
Yours truly does readily confess
the following poem crafted more or less
approximately a year ago,

Never will it go away...
Rain is coming...

a woman pulled me to death.

For Election Day 2016
When I think about this year
and all the stories that we hear
of Clinton's crimes, and Trump's remarks,

In Times Like These
For such a time as this:

That heaven had...
