Analysis of Stately Thoughts
Social superiority sidewise
preventing secured signs
Nameless perched arrogance
haughty profile undermines
Cautiously considerable hopelessness
disjoined sagging hostile
Weary thinking theater
forward looking versatile
Dissatisfied crushed effort
clattering punctured mornings
Resting favorite moments
wondering why no warnings
Bristling bewildered importance
bombardments crashed annoyance
Cheerfully piercing mirrors
hysterically triumphant flamboyance
Swaying darkness sleep
smelly tension rising
Opened porous notions
thunder bonfire surprising
