markets money sidewalks
haunting gaunting guidebooks
left for read the book in hand
screeches to the birdless bush
gavels handy and too heavy
resting lesting jesting levies
taxing taxonomic tripe
giving softness apple ripe
cut off the bruise and bit the flesh
grinding down the grown-up sesh
political and personal
out of envy stippled lull
on the sadness ride a horse
given up the best remorse
lilting lullaby with sound
to the flower green bush ground
people are a little thing
speckling the cosmic ring
spinning in direct reproach
to the vocal ego coach
