spurious maneuvering sparkled
sparing documents while withholding
fervent starlit corpsed travails
like matches over an open fire

cumbersome spinoffs locomoted
crooning loquacious performances
styles of backhands formed purviews
claiming rights over all the troops

gigantic trials stunned the world
ailments wore pancakes inside domes
types of tournaments symbolized warfare
lighting tunnels approved of by none

germs spored after the hurricane hit
accolades were slim during discussions
clambakes enthralled the public at large
phosphorous stagnates aged the crowd

boiled farms under scrutiny
lashing out at silence
canteens of hot oil
nothing was recognizable

hunters bore down in their hideaways
slowly percolating into submission
jumping off cliffs was considered
aching for global restoration
