that stun–this weak–created tough
stripping daze from nights–
the sun, and weak end was enough
no con…but creed exchanging bluff
excising wrongs from rights
that stun–this weak–created tough
in mien…it’s neither ruse, nor rough
but black, and grey, and white
the sun, and weak end was enough
and learned; a fineness culled from fluff
a truth inside the trite
that stun–this weak–created tough
and earned; in brand new skin–not slough
a scoured beach from tide
the sun, and weak end was enough
the turn, was key unlocking cuff
the mystic beyond sleight
that stun–this weak–created tough
the sun, and weak end was enough
