flashback

pacifist enigma
light and dark warrior
strained machismo
a negative effect

truant morality biting
schized librarian in effigy
a blatant moon rising
dark provincial night

i ching fleeting backwards
parallel bars in contrast
stoned adventure seeping
cataclysmic parts acknowledged

rye makes haste in time
contrast revolts inferiority
old man making no rhyme
reeks of measured breath

stalwart benefactor impotent
directs a poignant path
old trees, stars, and beatdom
lie unreachable as goals

swords defunct like muskets
intellects are old hat
muse-thoughts-line-melody
come together on occasion
