Roses run rampant quite righteously rude
vast volleys of violets recite in reverse
pink posies parade with precise pulchritude
darn daisy delusions dawn dreadfully worse.

Lilacs lilt lyrics down daylilly lane
daft dandelions dance to a different drum
indigo iris insist I'm insane
it's bloomin' bizarro at best where I'm from.

Fleur fashionistas fill floral bouquets
mad marigolds march in protest with aplomb
all remainder of reason slips swiftly away
as alarms sound in sequence insistent as bombs,

where awake with a sense it's some sinister plot
that some roses are red, while some others are not.
