fist of fits
hand of handles
womb of woman
born of candles

my mind finds
a lesser speak
and your saviors
turn their cheek

questions test you
methods best you
force the quest
and reinvest you

if the windows
can’t be closed
pluck a petal
from a rose

place one each
upon your eyes
all is rosy
say the flies

I had to post on this one i adore this stanza.

"my mind finds
a lesser speak
and your saviors
turn their cheek"

mmm makes me feel all warm and tingly.

May the muse never leave you, and if she does make sure the door hits her in the butt.

Neither night nor day can give me purchase only purged dust on earth can avenge the worthless.

This is a fun, quirky write. Visually strong with a rap feel to it.

Enjoyed.

KuruShio,
Thank you so much for the read and kind comments. Btw, the muse is always naked.

Sparticus,
Your rap take is very kewl, thanks man. Ancient spells and riddles often rapped.

Maree,
Sweetest Maree, truly thou knowest, I walk among the dead, lol. Thanks, m'friend.
