Obverse
OBVERSE
This is undeniable
Antithesis of my heart.
You are detrimental,
undenounced with the consequential
and spoiled within the frozen.
A warfare of dichotomy from the start.
All plans foiled,
all paths pre-chosen.
Ovulate in precession with the moon
This taste left begs the question
When is it cowardice to assume?
All assumption requires is ignorance.
But even the ignorant
Aren’t all too stupid, too soon.
Even the blind can envision
The message spelled out in the runes.
Prophets and fortune tellers
Cowards and idiots,
It’s fair to assume.
