The Mezunian

Die Positivität ist das Opium des Volkes, aber der Spott ist das Opium der Verrückten

seaside autumn sunset sonnet

Accompanying music:

by the colacolored waves

whispering their swaying sounds

sun this sunday early lays

’pon its waterbed o’ clouds

blanketing these cooing gales

mintsweet firs to kill the chills

counting ships those reekcreep snails

sail its walls o’ frosty hills

days descend like paper sheets

yellowing synced with leaves whose trees

shiver black with tea & seas
