Channeling G.M. Hopkins

Ode to an Early Snow
Autumn's caught,
"Bereaving"...
Early snow
'at work':
Un-leaving.


Sodden scenes
Exhale,
Grow older.
Sorrows sown
By time,
Wax bolder.



Covered leaves,
Spread thick and hurried;
Winter whispers:
Wild, un-worried.


Is this cycle
One you mourn for?
('Tis the fate
All souls were
Born for).

UTTER TOXICITY!


ONE REALLY TOXIC BREW...


     IT IS WHAT YOU MAKE OF IT!!!



Take one trenchant
Tongue of 'spin';
Fold it under,
Tuck it in...
Add to this
A plastic chin;
Now, I'd state
Our work begins!
Stir in squirrels' nests,
Satan's smirk;
A toothy  grin,
Rosacea's 'perk'.

Add some hair  grease,
Molt from coats;
Now this brew is
Primed to float!


Brassy- bubble,
Strained by Newt;
Huckabee-Sanders,
What a hoot!!



One bare chest

( The Russian kind);
Lends this soup
Such slippery slime.

Botox, fillers;
Wives, 1-2-3!!
Our toxic brew
Is ripe for fleas!

Eye of Mongol;
Eye of Hun (see below);


Oh!  I'd say
Our soup is done!!!
YUK !!!!!

But Jared added one more trick
to give this potion extra kick!
