Let us then read it with earnestness 
And learn...

Every time I get happy
the Nana-Hex 
comes through.
A dog's canines 
change into chainsaws,
toothpicks turn into knives,
coral reefs diverge into dirty sponges,
a sandcastle into a mausoleum,
a soldier-ant burrows deeper
into my borrowed grave,
reveille trumpets tap 
a tip-toed...

break …

my heart?
you did not break my heart
you COULD not break my heart
I utilized all the “Yous” that came before

Faculty meeting. Formidably flippantly fortuitously fluffy and forgetful.
I began to write a little list of F words, because I was in the F word mood.

Authenticated by divine righteousness
Our sanctuary-worship is genuinely experienced
In His magnificent holiness, truly sublime…
We must be glad in keeping His instructions

My heart has these many dwellings
such dead cold cautionary tales
long disregarded and condemned.

this mansion of...

So, the dangerous motion formidably goes by,
So, the unknown one remains unknown for the time being,
So, one is ahead of the petty singing. 

The one and only is good-natured...

Amidst waves with their varied intensities 

Beyond disasters and catastrophes

Contending and prevailing over calamities

Determined am I to do my mission for seafarers

Effectively warning against ocean-caused wreckage 

Fulfilling my role as good guide...

Guarding and governing toward...

Halfway through learning life you find therein the games
Played by the oblivious and those who made names 
Then your simplicity in view begins being challenged 
As make believe is by hard facts rearranged
That society is...

After broken dreams drowned in dolorous night
the nascent sun dawned the beckoning new day
in the desolate expanse of the desert wilderness
for the neophyte traveler set to cross dunes of life
that lay formidably flung far one...

Fruitful faeries flying freshly frightenly faraway
Flashing flea-bitten furry fireflies fantasy fey,
Faux flash-dancing flowery figs flowing flippantly free,
Ferocious fierce foursome fruit-flies flying fantasy’s flea.
	
Fast-fingered flicker formidably frugally fit flexible.
Frosting frilly flounder’s fluorescent fetish fully fixable.
Fanciful freckled...

We are stronger than we think
Ups and downs of everyday will never go away 
What didn’t kill us yesterday 
Won’t send us to our grave tomorrow or today

Resiliency develops over time 
We are stronger than...

Treading liquid air by arm, though remaining in one place
Tire from living, tire from the hectic pace
Drawing in breaths deelply in fear, FROM fear and WITH fear they...
