Crowned by thorns of golden spokes, cruel barbs, a case in point – keeping others at arm’s length, resentful, noses out of joint; rapiers high, you stand on guard, covering heart with spines of steel, hoisted on your own petard, you’ve forgotten how to feel.

Crowned by thorns of golden spokes,
cruel barbs, a case in point –
keeping others at arm’s length,
resentful, noses out of joint;
rapiers high, you stand on guard,
covering heart with spines of steel,
hoisted on your own petard,
you’ve forgotten how to feel.
