Regardless of reason

Fostering fools in radiant light

Scrabbling screws in a frightened night

Awkward apparitions abolish and bait

All with an askewed, vitrioled hate


Bismark and Bottony all the day

Sundried and kissed all the way

On course with treason

Regardless of reason

Amphibious assumptions

Acuse us all

According to our actions

Aquatic astronauts evoke reaction

As antigen runs around

Amplfying aural aspects

As ants ascend 

 

Awful attempts at assumptions

As words aren't affecting

Ashamed and arriving

Aren't you glad

As it all ends
