Reserata Carcerem Lvii Poem by Joshua Adeyemi

Reserata Carcerem Lvii



Porous pride sucked sassy strength leased
b' bounty biddings hoisted hurls greased.
"f two cods, crushed contentions dangled -
their salient stances 'n' hexed dribbles.

Quoth th' first t' twain bis, "Oft would you grudge?
Knowing that ere thou wert torn trudge
hoisted horizon "f pain punctured.
Why ergo thou'rt "n offshoot "f fractures? "

Torn twain b' lanky liquor smitten
which behove with erst ñ ill'sion driven,
hewn haggard syllables 'n' did robe
fractured folly 'n gullible glows.

Anon skipped torn twain like gazelle,
treading lands as waves - lured limbs hexed.
'20: 07: 26: 10: 40
