like plectra upon harpsichord string
the subtle accentuation of her flesh upon box spring
compose the phonology of her nonchalance
like the nerves she strikes, she beckons prompt response
within the confines of the somatic stage
stitched with silver thread upon gilded page
inscribed with unabridged content, unscathed by guilt
with such precision, such focus, as the spotlights quilt
patterns of unsurpassed elegance
as she shines like grand royalty, her tiara in the fold
always focused and poised upon their sole inhabitant
the only true sense of loyalty, she has ever cared to behold
her ever inflated sense of entitlement and privilege
only aggrandized by the virtuous nature of her solemn and noble deeds
she is the primary beneficiary of government loopholes and the mismanagement of funds
and is completely unable to distinguish between her wants and needs
she is the hardest working individual to have ever crossed my path
moving the heavens themselves in order to defraud the state
and hitherto has received income, housing, and sustenance
courtesy of the taxpayers and of my own estate
while my calluses continue to rupture in the name of the common good
another byproduct of the forever-binding greed of the capitalist agenda
my patience slowly drifts through the carpal tunnels
the unmoving pawn, left to hang in the gardens of the hacienda
to have not the credit to escape the centipedes that inhabit this basement
watching through an etched goblet as the world is sliced and handed to her upon silver platter
in the merry "blanking" meanwhile my efforts go unnoticed
hopefully the glass will shatter

I find it quite disturbing that a single person
could invoke this level of distain and contempt
the subject seems to implore at a capacity
fit for a whole society of degenerate leeches
How ever this passage articulated
precisely and in great depth
any discosertion brought on by anyone of this nature
and justifiably so
