In Patterns of Regret


rhythm shaped
  beyond where wine influences us

to explore
  deep seeds
  buried in the garden of a book

the key, however, is
  in repeated sonic babble, distortions

reflection of the world,
  the echo unveils poets
  striking out words
  built from the stick of disregard

striking out words
  the echo unveils poets’
  reflection of the world
  in repeated sonic babble: distortions

the key, however, is
  buried in the garden of a book

deep seeds
  to explore
  beyond where wine influences us

rhythm, shaped
  in patterns of regret
