To her chagrin her little finger froze
It was stuck so far

Finger up nose - not a ladylike pose!

Every witching hour,
I observe your lifeless victims
From my tiny...

students did not like him at all,
egged of by professors, quite enraged,
with no decency at all.

but when this man dared to speak,

Above outlooks and mind's decor
And abscond from realism
Of life's spectral prism.

But will desert you in a wing of an eye
Leaving you with myriad driblets of tears

My thoughts swimming;
in a pool of masquerade shame.
