Barely breathing beyond the bounds of basic necessity

Reaching, reacting, responding to rhetorical bombast

Ostentation is out of order, out of the obvious realm

Keening of the kind to keep the knell of kin out

Eradicating the emulous effigies that endure kings

Next to the nebulous niceties of the normal bustle
