Winter warmer
Sky forgotten
Eye glass frost
Rotten timber

Room for rent
Random guest
Renaissance
Heart from chest

Met a chap whose pecker went lame

Rockets flare in brilliant aerial display
Lighting the night as though were day
Roman candles fired at the moon

igniting
 streaked
lightning
blinding
our minds

All are hells that are coming.
