From flabby bod I'd poundage peel
To Grecian god beneath reveal.

But soon my straining torso frail
Becomes complaining, moaning male.
I parts exert unused for years,
Resulting hurt benumb with beers.

Beguile me, July sun, with your hot, penetrating glare,
A star of careless seizure, I can't avail but stare.
I lust for your soulmate, the one who kindles my desires.
With a kiss that sets...

Crumbling worlds before emotional eyes lamenting,
Rumbling ruins through mortified masses repenting…
Abandoned cityscapes amongst vigorous viral venom,
Saddened silenced souls searching becoming benumb…

Within idol isolations irreversible tears turning to rust,
Mortal sin of evil endeavors amidst escalating mistrust…

Within that rule of thumb
that I am vanquished, yet among
majorities ~ the role's succumb
I cast it not ~ the vote's benumb?

Acceptance core ~ I take the floor

Not one, three bowls of lovely pomegranates
Look, the passion incarnate
Love or hate as you like, please don't desecrate
Gateway to glorious ecstasy

I know you think I’m morbid
when I come back from the living
wearing black all along

Flakes that now are falling numerously

Glad you be in grace 
Benumb, in disgrace 
Hearty you be in giving
Broad you be in forgiving.

So much did I hear -
The buzz of moral quotes

Either sung by Gurus or coded in Scripture;
Either floating in...
