Verse
Timid tiny beast
That holds sway
Over every coercive
Line with which you reply
A tickling tease of the mind
Meant to slither
Ever so slightly
Underneath the skin
Probing,
Roving to see what’s within
Every practiced recourse
Out to attain
With subtle pause
Slight inflections
Linger long,
Rehearsed actions
Deflected
Affected
Actions
Reflections
React,
Ascertaining desire
OR
Semblance of literary conviction
Just
Viral Memories
Scrubbed to extinction
