"Life is cruel. Why should the afterlife be any different?" - Davy Jones, Pirates of the Caribbean.


Snowdrops forever envy honeyed springtime melodies,

Evermore ebbing like forsaken soulless bodies.

The diary of anxious scribbles, now lost as well forgotten

Gets firmly fliped over a pile of beans too rotten,

As I hoard thoughtless dictions inside a fragile sternum;

My dead fish keeps decaying in that ageless aquarium.

 

Drowsy delirious pole star quite inaccurately beams,

On a debris of damsels delicately premature dreams.

While tirelessly talents drown in self doubt's aisle;

Unaffectedly slim creepers ramble on a baked tile.

Kindness is bound to die in a world bonding intimate lies,

Affirming why soldiers be martyrs under napalm skies.

 

Children sailed ambitions on self-crafted paperboats,

Rewarding me a recollection of childish anecdotes.

Reluctantly I strolled back home as tipsy thunder lurked,

To sigh over rejected canvases when paints smirked.

A bountiful mimosa branch triggered my cockatoo's dings;

Flapping seemingly miserable makintosh wings.

 

Drenched blood roses bereft it's thorns of ivory dust

To delude the inebriated petals with porcelain lust.

In a patriarchal drey a dodgy squirrel family dines,

As mindless I, accuse the vindictive wistaria vines;

For the constant drizzle censoring every city light

Sequentially I slided under my duvet to warm up the night.


The author's comments:

I'm a 8th grader, who likes to rhyme up words in her leisure time. It was a cloudy day until afternoon, when it rained not very generously. I tried to picture the day from the perspective of a aimless commoner returning to a bleak lodging, and versified that picture.
