Rafters

To the rafters
Ever after
Heart of laughter
Slave to master

Dream of dinner
Kith and kinner
Salvage sinner
Ticket winner

Nice and easy
Brisk and breezy
Cheap and cheesy
Stomach queasy

Drenched in fabric
Poached in hubris
Benched in tragic
Coached in magic

Devil’s handsome
Leper’s loathsome
When we had some,
It felt wholesome

Could be better
Bedbug wetter
Tearful letter
Put on a sweater

Do or Diner
Dusty miner
Nothing finer
Wordy whiner
