Reserata Carcerem LII
Like specks “f dainty dusts thrown ‘wards north,
b’ worn wings “f wanky wind o’er cliffs borne.
Torn tides tracing dark dribbles ‘n hate;
callous confetti athwart sprayed.
Same ‘s cloned contention time borrowed.
“f supernal beings ‘n’ their foiled furrows;
through which flow waves of their wishes.
‘n which haughty heights ‘f gaunt giants sink.
Their dusts are but offshoots “f timbers;
sassy saw’s spree prunes sore smothers.
‘n’ damp deities’ winds toss them about,
’til silh’uette diminishes to aught.
Neither are dainty deities foul,
nor are moaning mortals gun’s pow.
