Sublime Solutions

Squalid screams, shingly shores
Slushy sullen spells
Skies spewed sour solitude
Supportive sidewalls sank
Scrimmages sans solutions
Sea splashed sorrowful songs
Searching sauveness sauntered soul
Sought soothing Supreme’s shower
Scarlet smog swiftly swept
Shimmery sequel sparged!

Each Other

Laid things
Here and there
Unedited reality
Seems to be natural

Invitation 
Broke the reality
And beauty of the disorder

Neatly and nicely arranged
Shingly and hardly cleaned
Structure less structure is structured
Everything calm and quite

Guests came with smiles
Gestures having edited  
Both beginning to act
Prepared arena for that

Conversation 
Plays with choked and forged words
Exaggeration 
Jumps with high level tone
Competition 
Goes flattering oneself
Conclusion
Ends with unaccepted misled signs

Created order with unmatched look
Uneasy tiredness was after that
Disorder slightly creeps from hidden
Naturalist living comes with shade in
