Abecedarium of Demise: The Letter I



Impecunious Ira had importune thoughts unraveling
when he saw the King's treasurer set upon the road a-traveling



He meant to take an inconspicuous bit from the cargo with which he was laden.
Now irresponsible Ira is impaled in the iron maiden.

Julie. I so agree with everyone. These need to be made into book form. I would buy one.

Shutterfly or Blurb. Put me down for one.

Julie, Julie.
