Even Flow (Poetry)

Saturnine (Poetry)
“Saturnine” is a poem written around the various definitions of the title word of the poem, Saturnine. Oh, who is this unsmiling face?

I may never earn a penny, but what do I care? These words are what they are. I have plenty to spare. Who may mock my rhymes? It doesn’t matter to me. These are most uncertain times, but the words must still fly free! These are the ramblings of a perpetual prose machine, which sometimes […]
