[acrocephalidae]

what is sweetness but the courtship of pain

the prelude to a tragedy not yet seen by mortal eyes

to be cleansed by the hand of a unnamed, unknown god

copper the hindsight will be for the forlorn of the lost

weeds grown through cement as time gives and takes

its eternal cycle of baptizing the earth in hopes of sowing new sorrow

the stories will be born to be forgotten
