am I not    olden olden olden it is unwanted. wanting, wanting am I not    broken stolen    common am I not crinkled cranky poison am I not glinty-eyed and frozen am I not    aged shaky    glazing am I not    hazy guarded    craven am I not    only stingy    little am I not    simple brittle    spitting was I not    over over    ridden? it is a long story will you be proud to be my version? it is unwritten. writing, writing am I not    ancient raging    patient am I not    able charming    stable was I not    building forming    braving was I not    ruling guiding    naming was I not    brazen crazy    chosen even the stones would do my bidding? it is a long story am I not proud to be your version? it is unspoken. speaking, speaking am I not    elder berry brandy are you not wine before you find me in your own beaker?
