Pretzel (Free verse) by daryash-koh

Show me the leader whose eyes can withstand The gaze of dead faces that leather in the sand. Blood on the lintel and bile on the mat, This is the suite where the bellies grow fat. Crimp the young shoots and advance by the nose, Shiny green beetles devour the rose.

Show me the leader whose eyes can withstand
The gaze of dead faces that leather in sand.
Blood on the lintel, and bile upon mat,
This is the suite where bellies grow fat.
Crimp the young shoots and press on by the nose,
Shiny green beetles shall devour your rose.
