Flight ith Hostility: Hail the Merciful

Hail the Merciful S’pose nine instances of pain Are nonexistent without a stain. So long as one’s immerged unmarked, These tense scenarios won’t play a part. S’pose there’s no conflict ever If that trouble’s too difficult to endeavor. To hell with the right bastard. Hail the merciful, they ignore... Sign in to see full entry.

A Flight with Hostility: poems- opening "Rivalry"
