shadows flame

Shadows flame
crisping glaze
upwards spiral
downwards game

intrepid fire
into the horizon
this pirate flounders
hum ho blunders

jest oh jest
jest oh jest
speak oh speak
speak oh speak

the class it struggles
to make ends meet
using disk and mortar
blood and angst

this month is heaving
the water trembles
like my wrist
on pen and paper

jest oh jest
jest oh jest
speak oh speak
speak oh speak

then he shot himself
in the foot
went to the lab
couldn't find the bullet

no gore no more
just love and peace
make the week end
with dissidence
