Analysis of Early Morning Passions
Plausible intentions often skip a beat.
Unwieldy pretensions
wilt in torrid heat.
Verbose bloviations mostly misconstrue.
Haphazard narrations
fail as a snafu.
Unfounded conclusions rarely can endure.
Fairy-tale delusions
shrink to miniature.
Malicious infractions largely nets turmoil.
Merciful reactions
stir a fine recoil.
Latest rage in fashions seldom come to stay.
Early morning passions
fade from red to gray.
