Struggle to write

prosaic prologues bewitch feeble minded scribe doth undertake

tend toward lugubriousness ring tone

for goodness sake echoing across,

a figurative lake woebegone, where quake

shutters latched storm windows,

clapped closed winter season didst make

physical environment lachrymose

analogous to imp pond durable dark lake,

where sits inside secluded hut,

this fledgling author named Jake

a former cub (scout) at a loss

to string together an aria

tomb other nature and NOT FAKE,

sepulchral paeon to divine Gaea,

Mother Earth especially incorporating

mutisyllabic (sesquipedalian) words,

which exertion on par with giving birth

(or so I guess), a particularly heavily pregnant laden dearth

of help mates, doubling demonstrably

deadly duty devoid of mirth totally tubular taxing toll,

an essentially unbearable

effort with bulging girth whereat digestion consumes

latent mental ambition, especially toasty warm near the hearth

which hitherto unknown to any reader

twas Xmas fabrication and fiction no crime committed,

nor animals harmed in the making of diction

aery necessary entrapping unsuspecting intellect

to comprehend somber benediction

unless perchance one lone wolf bait Oven English Major

with Westernization topped off

with a European debunaire suave acculturation

even luckier if hypothetical personage

dips daintily into forays epicurean,

though careful, and alert since church fathers

would frown on parsonage whose natural born ardor,

a spiritual abduction stealing austerity, complacency,

and objection toward forced irrational schemas

averse to abnegation unfair imposition

to foist upon pruriant predilection also impossible

to sequester arbitrary animal urges,

punishing call of the wild,

sowing seeds a beastial accusation considered averse,

then imposition contrition!
