Analysis of Tapering
Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)
Fervent your tireless passion.
Intense your expressive bubble
Natural your girthly submissions
Far beyond working class
Every sounds kiss the ear
Yet blood pours upon your feet
Silently overrun by streaming
Adverts never your adversary

About this poem
Modifying structures of language that move too quickly to really ever put your finger on, and often do so while you're not even paying attention until you're stuck in a realisation that you haven't earned rights to enter rival cliques, only rights therefore being equality ones.
