The Daily Dread
Yesterday
First step to create
Is to destroy what once was
Wipe it all away
Ashes ashes all fall down
Says the Phoenix," Nevermore
barely sentient
pugnacious pugilist pawns
poking the people
only following orders
no matter how illegal
butterfly wings fold
to conceal glorious
supreme pink peaches
A Scroll Threw Life
