The Sweetest Tone

They tend to trust our revolts and reveal
Credit trysts on the fair side of their
Ledger. It is about more than agency.

The orange times remain as strands that
Cannot be trained, the off-again modes
Allocate among the see-us-nows, bearing

Down on the right array of one another.
Consider the struggle among premium
Currents for a positive evolution, we think

It runs less certain from the race. We notice
That the hurdles, alpha and Frida, challenge
The delivery of our group’s natural balance.

Let me see in any case whether numbers
Pass through the choir to the facade of
Ribbons on the town hall. I want sedation

Rather than the output of our academy; the
Outer rings confirm the pictures but drown
Our figure, and I can feel shimmers hit limits.
