spreads  stream  scheme  crease  flood  fear  fact  lines  sweet  vicious  lure  extreme


What scheme is this,

     this flood of fear,

          this vicious lure

to forgo fact,
    
     and look to the extreme? 

The lines that spread

     across my brow

          crease and frown

               as my eyes stream

tears at the loss of innocence,

     and the lack of aspiration

to undertake

     the sweet truce

of unity.
