?

The orotund timbre of the beating heart

A torrent of blood

Streaming

Torrid affairs

Dearth of good will

Draconian punishments

To obfuscate the truth

With ostentatious lifestyles

Prescinding from darkness

What’s love got to do with it?

  1. I like the precise words here. I also like that in the very first line I learned a new word; “orotund” means “full, round, imposing,” a power that is evident throughout the rest of the poem.
