...My Adopted Burg
Once upon a time I saw the vibrant
Roses on your streets, festooning both sides.

Between two neighbouring nations
That were once one whole large land

Lost some petals,
Little withered,
But still whiffing her odor
All he said to her,

This drug is what I possess. And problems,
ongoing dimensions of pretension exceeding rainbows.

The winds all whine again.

His dandruff falls as sn...
