bitter eggs

bitter eggs
boil black,
never shine.
hot spray
lives on juice
of less,
smearing sausage
sweats; trudges,
rusted lazy meat.

bitter eggs oracle 042024

The Oracle had an unusual message today. One I will have to ponder. I used the Original set of words today. The collage is from 2019.

      Yes. I think even the Oracle has reached her limit.

      Max, that’s an unusual message from The Oracle. I think she’s reached her limit with human idiocy and insistence on war :( Sorry to spoil your appetite, my friend.
