built overnight,
it’s very well splayed
breeding unrest
among those that fly,

morning dew
the color of twilight

Sons and daughters one and all
Go forth and live your young lives
As now, leaders who declare war
face each other like jousting knights
The rest of us shall stay home and place bets

You’d treat if met where any bar is,
Or help to half-a-crown.”
