On regret's silver platter

To weave the dreams of your fate
Be stronger than your nightmares...

Sinfully embraced by
the depths of lusts's

total bizarre
alarming 
where to go ?

Freezing, drowning, dieing.
Clouds weeping sinister sorrow.
Pouncing, dancing, dripping.
Beautiful, painful.

Opening up your veins
Red and rich runs your blood
Placing your very life
In danger so dreadful
Of a death undesired...

bewitching she glared

Then Trump Took Aim
Then Trump Took Aim

Ready, set and than Trump took aim;
His strategy became more of the same;
Might be minister,
Who was sinister;
Democratic Party he is sure to blame.
