the cauldron of meA Poem by T.H.this the cauldron
I despise and loathe, abhor, detest,
reject. no entry for a weak, though a passage
through easily, if you please, shoes stay on, for
bother there is no need, slush anyhow,
anywhere, terrible, vile and foul, abhor, detest,
reject. no entry for a love, though a passage

love to rid, yet comes never. it is, inside.
prayfully, rid. prayfully, rid. © 2023 T.H. |
