The Waifs

Pretending to virtue, the waifs
stand impugned--with no place
left to flourish; like dung
in sham's repository, flushed
before the noonday sun (the wretches):
they would not know the desert
for the sand.
Nothingness intrusion: from dung,
these wildflowers, which grow
from fetid remains--the waifs,
who came for cleansing,
would be devoured instead;
and none that come shall say,
"These are waifs."
But for the skull and feet, and palm
of hands, they shall be as sand:
dogs who died for longing--nothing more.

Jackals prey on the weaklings. That is the way of the world. How many lie scattered in the sands of time unknow and how many are never missed. Sad, but true.

Another piece of perfection once more, my friend... Over-whelming, filled with anguish, and disturbing truth... I agree with RITA... Never will she be known to the world. And that is very heart-breaking, for what she went through... Incredible write, beautiful flow, all in all magnificent! I tip my hat to you once more, and many more times to come... Bravo! (applauds) Standing ovation, mon ami! I will never get tired of reading your work, Sagacious... All my love as always!
Your dearest fan,
Fleur |
