Alas No More
Sacrificed lamenteach precious hour
freely offered to the Gods
Alas no more
Petulant promiscuity
crying on the floor
once a proud flower
Alas no more
Flippant wisdom
aging kindness frayed
dying with every passing hour
Alas no more
Lies perching
lined up by four
patiently waiting seemingly bored
Alas no more
Patriarchal patrician
quite insane indeed
parading, lost on memory lane
Alas no more
Small promises
repulsive recluse proper
marching unkempt pain
Alas no more
Spoken truth
trailing behind the main
silenced from a babe
Alas no more
Prolific prejudice
complacent slothful laggard
struggle with all your might
Alas no more
Radiant fear
sparked among the innocent
rapacious rampant niggling
Alas no more
Alas no more
Alas no more
