Thanks to those,

terribly twisted,

terribly true,

teachers of tyranny.

Thanks to those,

those tactful,

those talented,

those trusted,

tellers of tyranny.

Thankful, truly thankful,

thankful to the teachers,

teachers that teach thee.

Teacher, teach me truth,

teach me tact,

teach me talent,

teach me trust.

Trust, a terrible task,

teach me to trust thee.

She smiles, so shy, so sweet.

Silly.

Secretly, she’s so sad.

Selflessness shan’t spare such sorrowful soul.

Still.

She stands, shielding spirit so soft, soon shattered.

Silently, she says, “Smile.”

Henry hears him

Seaside, summer spectacle

Sandy seashore soothes soul’s stress

Squawking, serenading shouts

Soaring seagulls sing sonnets

Ships sail, slowly shrinking

Sole sailor seeks sea’s solace

Sentiments speak spiritual

’Side seashells, seaweed, starfish

Shadows slip, surrendered

Sapphire stroked — serene, sublime

Swallowing Sun’s strength

Sipping sunlight’s stained-glass stein

Spectrum’s show strikes shivers

Suddenly, stealing Sun’s spot:

Satin sails slowly submerge

Shrouding seaside sunset sought

Sinking, Star’s soon silenced

Shimmers streaking sky’s sunset

Sun sleeps; somnolecensce

Shading starlight’s silhouettes

Saddened, sunken soul, shattered

Sunrise slowly sweeps

Softly spilling sun-rays

Sorrow swallows sunshine, sweet

Silly shy speaker

She says she still

Sleeps sweet slumber

Slightly sick she

Slyly sneaks some

Snacks so she slumbers

slightly shorter sleep.

Time.

The thief that takes,

Through tedious tolls.

Tempts the tortured to trust,

Then turns them to toil.

Trapt through trauma,

Testing their temperament.

They tell time to

Tumble to their tune.

Tick to their tock,

Tilt time to their truth.

This tricks them to theorize

That they tell time.

Thus time takes,

Then time tells.
