ALMANAC 36
Musicianship is bridged in recollection.
Prattle a zest or irritant.
This orb whirrs as it dizzy-rounds.
Thunder's furore passes.
Surdity nears, howsoever.
ALMANAC 39
Waves - misgiving indigo.
Tete-a-tetes amplifying, giddy.
Uniform power-drive buzz.
Quaff trolley is inched.
The jet unrivets
In ashy sky.
ALMANAC 40
Transit is restful.
Below par districts sheer off.
Crows lunge, profiled in window.
Upbeat incessant.
A run-luck hatchback and your train
Mash. Sublime carnage.
