    talent

    blame can corrode
    the mind
    the truth
    narrows
    it does not understand Poirot's
    world's grief is
    the elite
    in words brief
    to self construct
    has a talent that best manage
    disparage
    which weighs years to balance
    when mischief is aberrant
    Wordsworth would want
    it for a solemn
    J'accuse is enthused
    it would hit the News.

    it may never try
    but when it does it sigh
    it is just that
    good
    it fly

    Hi, cacian,
    I liked also your beginning
    "blame can corrode
    the mind"
