But I don’t sing sad songs,I tell cautionary tales,And if they’re contrary,It’s not … Continue reading Parallel Equivalencies
Conversion
I had a thought,That came to my mind.Why it stayed,I don’t know. It caused me distress,And gave me no rest,For it refused to go. It was a prideful thought.And I feared,I might commit the deed,It represented in my mind. And … Continue reading Conversion
