tokens the magician PALMS
then brandishes in the light AGAIN
recursive LASSO

a MISER
of paper scraps · with a tendency to SNORE
falling hair ahead full STEAM

crystal TIARA
the EASEL
for a lot of flagrant entities that AREN'T

faulty schmaltzy or merely MALTY
to quips PARED
jelly sprockets · in my somnolent ABODE

in the wise words of Le Dragon ROUGE
action is overly EDGED
be sparse with your DEEDS

"And I have no remorse and little fear,
Which are, I think, the checks of other men.
This mood has grown upon me, until now
Any design my captious fancy makes
The picture of its wish--and it forms none
But such as men like you would start to know--
Is as my natural food and rest debarred
Until it be accomplished."

--The Cenci
