~~~STYMIED~~~

Clamorous revel raised beneath the storm,
Tattered images quail above the din.
Nonsense basks in libation of the tongue,
Spending all her function to shape the form.
Bantered wisdom shutters a faceless grin,
Traipsing on the parapet where she clung.
Bizarre becomes life's pleasurable norm,
All the rage racing to finally win.
Nothing lost nor gained; the chorus has sung.
