~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Abandon all abilities and aspirations 

Behold babbling bolstered bugs 

Crinkly cockroaches cutting 

Dissatisfied dandelions 

Eager evangelical eagles earnestly 

Fabricate fictitious facts.

Grandiose gibberish,

Has helped hazardous hypotheticals.

Idolize infectious ink in 

Jeopardized jargon. 

Knowledgeable kooky kebabs,

Log long-lasting likable 

Man-made monstrosities.

Narrow national narratives 

Object oppressed observers,

Passive Peacemakers, perfectly poisoned.

Quickly question

Real reasonable requests. Ridiculously,

Saturate sabotaged structures. 

Target the transgender teens.

Until unrequited unanimous 

Vivid violence vehemently 

Washes well-mannered wage workers.

Xenophobes X-ray

Younglings. Yak your yuppies, 

Zap zestful zeal.
