EDIT: This poem isn't about THIS forum. I know I wrote it below but there seems to be some confusion!!!!!
Written a long time ago for another forum ...
Acid Rain
Mellifluous, a smooth and even tone
Overt oppression jars this slickened tongue
Derelict the thoughts of addled men,
Sat pompous on a thrown of young.
Angst, the cold of a blacksmith’s steel,
Ready the anvil, hammer and fire.
Eschew the water, shape, not starve the blade,
Forgo the calamity of lustful ire.
Open hearts, the once was withered part
Or risk a turgid land of clod and weed
Lament the arid earth, breathe in the trees
Superfluous the acid rain so praise our seed.
