Day's drooping! I've ironed out hours of omens
Propitious sung symbols scroll-scribed a wise way
Lines leaping, odes ordered, right rhythms and aspects
Paired palatals, taps, even vowels twined tight.

Limp lover comes calling, rote writing as "artistry"
Trying to tell me "so sorry!" and add
Fraught, feeble conclusion with wishes for friendship
His heartache laid lengthwise, pale parchment for form.

Rereading his heartache, my mouth soon goes gasping:
Ends echo, same-sounding! How horrid! It irks;
Kin codas? Mad magic, chant-charting gone gamy
Deep danger, we warn them, hex-heretic text.

Shocked shouting: keep clear of rogue rhymes to woo witches!
Cad's careless, barbaric love letter's soon spurned.
