blame the purblind Doomsters,
not me.
blame the ragged claws scuttling
across the floors of silent seas
for this Elusive Allusive disease.

Who, not a look and wailed ever more still 
To grow restless, disconsolate, more riled,

Up there overhead with silent anger
What a truly ghastly, dangerous beast
On a morn with dazzling trapezoid skies

To rich sparkling treasures we left behind,
But the memories become somewhat blurred,
