Daft-Berry, Pining for Solomon's Lily

By lupus tenebrae

A daft-berry, idyllic, with
cherry brandy, curtain-raisers,
chiming bells, all gifted to the
Solomon's lily its been pining for:

as all the yard conductors are
stagecrafts and all the
dandizettes vy for the spot price.

The wind beam, the true pleader,
its thespian secretary bird
billowing from a North
Arabic tongue-fern;

and we, the people's party are merely
the extraction turbines, gages, backets
never taking the center stagecraft.

Author's Note:

Another N+7 piece, I tend to do these on occasion as a sort of writing exercise, they actually serve to expand my vocabulary...but at face value, it's just nonsense with a face-lift.
