1. oooh

    it does
    no good to fret
    but
    when eyes feel
    as if
    continuously molested
    by any gleam,
    incandescent ray
    of light,

    when all a body pleads for
    is to write
    and brilliancy is
    a veritable necessity,

    [tried writing in the dark already]

    quite honestly
    fretting consumes
    less energy
    than
    giving up an urge.

     
  2. coping with beasts

    justice serves no purpose
    when it is vertically inclined
    to favor those at the very top

    though aimed at advances,
    regulations remain a tool
    for holding back.
