Something grand
Outlandish, propitious
Auspicious from the start
Fist over cuff
Lips shut
Cut, it's a wrap
Snap the neck back
From where the snap first attacked

Recede to the place
Legs crossed
Human race
Lost
A holocaust
Breath of salt
Air is caught
Lungs burst
Monoxide thirsts
Cells contort
Mutation is sought
The fight is fought
Blood has spilt
As the cup tilts

Isolation
Separation
Equal but segregation
Water fountains
Desperation
Schools dismounted
Statues planted
Narcissist are granted
Every whim
Like a pin poking the frail skin
Silver frosting
With a golden rim
Don't cut it all off
Just a trim

Trustworthy
But undeserving
Unholy matrimony
A grave unearthing
Save the king
Forget the queen
She is a whore
An adulterer, unclean
Deposit her
Far from eyes that have seen
A travesty, your majesty
A servant I have been

Where and how do you come up with these fantastic ideas??? You never cease to amaze me...honestly. This is your classic style that I love and cherish so much! Great, expressive write with a domino effect of emotions...Well done!

I really like this.

You seem to have your own special way of writing. I love the style. The flow is really good.

I can't make head nor tale of it though, I really don't understand what this is about.

I think I like the last stanza best.

Good write,
*hugs* Phil xxx
