Butters Drippin From My Elbows

Butters Drippin’ From My Ears

Summer’s mostly over
I’ve not once mentioned Iowa corn.
It’s the symbol of the state
In which this rhymer’s born.

There are other places
That grows passable “sweet” corn.
I’ve eaten several others
But my druthers always torn.

but their shallowness is discerned with bitterness:
when they can't save a life even with invoked mercy so tense...
as powerlessness turns into hopelessness;
can faith help us make the...

Affected continuous

Fistful sand slipping down in haste.
Unbothered about the delays and tussles around.

Highlighting every single day.

Fistful memories binding themselves together.
