A exercise in telling a story using the beautiful language of gramamtical alliteration in a poem about our humanity.

Aimless auras accentuating acumen
belittling, beckoning, bemoaning;
calling callous careless conduits
demanding duress during decisions
emitting erroneous edicts escalating;
foretelling fortunes fulfilling fools
grasping gargantuan ghastly gossip;
hurrying, hurdling, hell-raising
individuals immersed in idyllic
jurisprudence jaunting jealousies;
keeping keen karmatic killers
languishing, lamenting, lusting –
mystifying melancholy merchants,
neglecting nefarious neighbors,
offering opulent officials on
pot, passionate pestilence pills;
quenching quest quagmires,
resisting reticent resolutions,
satisfying sin sorry souls so
tired, trapped; thoughtlessly thin;
unyielding, unknowing, untruthful-
vengeful vile voices; venerating,
warning witches wasting willful
youth; yearning, yelling you’s-
…Zeus zealot zoo zones.
