Seeker

Wind the spool
Retract the rule
Climb the stairs
Find the jewel

Follow the needle
Lead the mule
Bend the tension
Chase the ghoul

Shimmy shaking
For it all
Light combusting
Caterwaul

Rake the after
Peeling plaster
Scoop imposter
Void disaster

Leaping leper
Grinding pepper
Orchid ankles
Ostrich stepper

Kindly, callous,
Leaking chalice
Raise your glass
Morning mass

All for nothing
Maybe something
Stretching reason
Lost in season
