Craft This Sterling Trestle

By lupus tenebrae

 



The seeds can truly nestle near,
nurturing once stunted growth.
So craft this sterling trestle here.

Oh dogwood dreamer, hold me dear,
savor this unspoken oath.
The seeds can truly nestle near.

These playground antics, wearing sheer,
playing us for victims both.
So craft this sterling trestle here.

Oh flower child, schoolyard peer,
lifeless niche of lemming loath,
the seeds can truly nestle near.

Expendable this friendship, mere,
nor a single solemn troth.
So craft this sterling trestle here.

Enough of your prosthetic sneer,
faltering as I had quoth.
The seeds can truly nestle near,
so craft this sterling trestle here.
