Doctrine of Signatures
Toggle-flippers and hissy-fits
are on the loose;
long-sleeved Nehrus,
with pretenses of fartingale
all done in chintz or flax
tied in the back
show little genuflection,
causing fidgeting fuss.
Beauregard fetches
scraggy scrapple
as a queen squints,
"druther's druggists
paint dizzy dithers
dishing out debauchery!"
Smiles of charity choose
these forms of flight,
frustrating the Veils of Babushka,
tippets smeared in hints of bacchivorous blue.
Again made safe from the havoc of hellbent gewgaws.
...I see I did it wrong.
But at least I squeezed out something needed.
