The gossip...

Some hauntings still last
Unwilling to change, planted in...

  While windsongs float within a breeze
 As the monarch flies

Mouth small as seashells
Seashells washed away
Seashells in the ground
Ground beneath her...

His heart is filled with pride
Arrogantly strolling in the room

You flap; make waves,
what else you got?
A flashy kite with no sky
that's what.

If a vulture and a jellyfish
gave birth to an offspring,
they would name it: Ego.

A monstrously beautiful blob...
