Bleed quickly,
chant and rant,
cripple wings,
life recants.

Plea softly,
sigh and moan,
torture love,
ache and groan.

Greed sweetly,
fly and flow,
grapple mind,
sharpen glow.

Flee swiftly,
hide and seek,
scissor time,
become weak.

Need darkly,
cry and weep,
clever lies,
shallow-deep.

Bleed quickly,
hate your fate,
die are cast,
death can’t wait.
