direst alchemists, conjure conjecture

[grifter]

direst alchemists, conjure conjecture

direst alchemists, conjure conjecture
artistic scientists producing potent potions
with the help of shy sighing deities
placidly perched in crowded emotions

a philosopher’s beard is inevitably invisible
unseemly in sing-song qualities

death’s defeat beneath a drink
a sour hour in our wizards' tower
for heaven hath no wink methinks
and the devil hath no power

[Laura]

This wasn't my favourite by you ... but I did enjoy these two lines:

"death’s defeat beneath a drink
a sour hour in our wizards' tower"

--I liked the rhyme of "sour hour" and then at the end "tower". The last line is also good.
