Desert shrines were canonical
before the Deluge.
The bamboo and fronds of their mouths
waved well in the sun,
and the strength of their arms shunned
the devilish romances of swift gales.

Deluge aftermath
lies on a pyre of laughter —
sardonic laughter —
holocryptic in its litter of
charms and pangs of incense.
Deluge aftermath
swears oaths of allegiance to

Fueled by tyrannical deceitful minds
Menacing rising breezes of war blew hot
Cruelty had defeated kindness
When freedom of thought became a treasonous crime
The stars in freefall would misalign.
The plot festered ignited by a spark began
Individuality was quickly condemned
The poisonous snake reared its head
