Sophisticated sociopathic
Silken suffering
Stifling suffocation
Sweet sensations
Sacred santification
Swollen, stretched
Shivered sanitisation
Sanded shoulders
Slandered; shook
Sempiternal sacrifice

So, so sibilant.
You love your tautograms.. Too clever for me on this one! I assume this is one of your darker MURDER pieces lol! But maybe not.. maybe it’s symbolic of something.. I dunno..And I had to look up THAT word ! 😅
I love this creative take on the challenge Paul! Nicely done!
Sophisticated Sociopath. I really like that. I've been calling myself the Empathic Sociopath all this while bit Sophisticated seems awesome! Loved your Tautogram! 🍩🥐
Sarcastic entry?
I've just learnt. New word!
Feel it, lingering over every line.
This is great!!
Well, look at you, gettin' all fancy with a smooth tautogram! And using archaic English, too! Hmmm, indeed! Great entry, my friend!
