Lisp Wry
Lisp dry river’s cracked lips, thirst dried, quench
Quick silver, cohesion adhesion, pools to drench
Mercury, upon temperature tube - monkey wrench
Desolate desert, cactus slit prick, thorn parch trench.
Well - Why question, thy bucket isolation, deep depression
Secluded skeletal wish, whisks rusted frozen - lock desolation
Lead deadened weight, cracks words, into nail bit expressions
Fabric torn asunder thunder strikes, spark stream elocution.
Why. Thy wrought words, be wry twisted - tormented a lone.
Lisp dye veins, could articulate arteries, amid flash flood moans
Chokehold vowels, upchuck consonant turmoil, a gist verse groans
Grasp thee hasp blade, holding bare thin threads, crying sown prone.
Dye naught be die, but stains of pains, amid scars, long healed by scorn
Thy have been, on long trail of woe - be me, reflect cracks, mirror worn
Hibernation tears, barked thy hide, brittle be bitter, upon taste worn-out
Inside out sockets, look into hollow being, existence - purpose be stillborn.
Shed dye snakeskin, bare thy soul conception, bear composition in word matter
Substantive substance, that as maple syrup, flows from winter solstice smatter
Spring anew supportive leaf, spiral out thy rut’s sink hole, thread thy path chatter
To assimilate relevance, that pure grit that self-propels future achievement’s banter -
Alter ego halo.
Now “LIST WHY” life matters.
