Beat around the bush,Ne’er quite get to the crux where,Truth hides in plain sight.

Rain water, boot legs –Regardless, she will perish;She must meet her fate.

She’s covered in dirt“Just as well – it fits” they said,Now she awaits death.

Write an ode for her,Place her on a pedestal –Fling her down to earth

The tea leaves constrainedBehind the strainer, bleed in –Calling over pain.

Is this a deep thought?Perhaps it is a feeling.My mind is a moat.

I wish to walk far,Deep down this long forest trail,And fail to return.

Stolen moments giveA thrill of illicit joy,Like a midnight treat.

Where did the shame hide?Did it settle in deep down,Where light dare not go?

Throw at me barbs, thorns,Whatever you will, to hurt,It’s what my soul thirsts.
