Him noting her dark chocolates,
Sweet looking,
Cloaked as balls of fire,
And...

And advance active activism for the rule of law stolen,

Until your mouth turned into the louse

Why they ignore their aching shoulders, and
Laugh at your...

Another whistling train speeds by in midnoon,
the jeering lad waves at pensive passengers
absorbed in serene, not adverse feelings;
his youth is vibrant and ready to lampoon!

Listen to the music of centuries
Remembering looking toward peace
"We must disentral ourselves"
The congressmen
Big black tires
Big black men,black suits
Siphoning your GRIT

Chameleons in all natures
Camouflaged at appropriate times
