To The Uninvited Fay (Or, Passably Perspicacious Person Presents Pretty Playful Pleasing Perhaps Persuasive Poem)




 


To: The Happy Sighting Of The Uninvited Fay

(Passably Perspicacioius Person Presents Pretty Playful Pleasing Perhaps Persuasive Poem)

From: a female Faust



Like an unexpected visitation from the Graceful Little Folk

Itself alike to tripping running into Loki at a rave

However dark your dreaming was, it now wants longer till awoke

Things lately sad, well turning to be come of a sudden happy have


Like some Færie playing Occam who makes moot my knotty bow

Or fay roleplaying Zorro, after vorpal snicker snack,

That left Evil yet believing for a moment to've escaped the blade somehow

Only to watch their front fall like dead bloody meat from off their back                                                                                            


Spitefulness & envy, willfull sloth, vanity & jealousy & greed

A prideful unacceptance so to observation disinclined as amounting to denial

If you see something but are too eager for the saying the færy folk know what you need

Sit down be quiet look & listen — to understand — your self — after a while


Everywhere the Spirit ventures likely Færies dance half hidden in plain sight

They put on such Glamour not for themselves as much so as perchance to put things Right.
