Blusters

Bodacious, blustery bags of wind.

Oh, superficial blunder-buster,

Must the world in pain endure

Another of your eerie flusters?

Flailing listlessly about in

Costumed plumage meant to hide

The masked profusion of confusion

That the truth holds deep inside.

Why must you purvey deceit?

Why such armor after all we’ve shared

In our brief history?

There’s no need to keep this wall

Between us when in simple terms

The kinder unembellished tale

Makes sweeter pudding for dessert,

Plays gentler winds upon the sail.
