Thirteen Loves Pretend

There was something
truly off about Him..
not the Painted Plaster
Smile..

(nor even The Scarecrow
Heart Turned Grim.)

no..
I think it was that
elusive style!!

(which murdered 13
Love's Pretend.)
__

Few saw past The
Postured Veil..

or Heard The Chaos
in His voice..

until He Rained Upon
Them Hell!

(though some declared
he had "no choice.")
