Star-struck shopping sprees

Soulless spending

Struggling in silence;

Swiftly succumbing to savings suddenly shriveled,

scorched by summer's sweet serenaded spirit.

Singing to be seen,

scared of soundless, shredding screams.

Swiping savings, sulking sorrows,

smoking should shrieking sadness shallow.

Shielding sleep from stalking our stagnant,

sourly scripted stories;

Serenity sea sailing.
