I feel extreme Gloom, 

My heart and mind in a Constant Room.

Chaos sounds like a Vroom, 

Heard akin to the Day of Doom.

As I glide with a Monarch Wing, 

I'll embrace the Spirit of Zing, 

Attain might as a King, 

And discern the Peace of Qing.

I won't be treated like Sap, 

My neck won't endure a Frap. 

Sorrows wrapped in a Nap, 

No chance of falling into a Trap.

— Luminous Hummer
