A rhyme-royal.

In a muddle 
In a puddle 
In a world made of dismay
On a rock in the middle a curious Mantis prayed

He was battered 
He was tattered 
He was in a terrible way
From the things in his heart he tried not to say

All the confusions
All the delusions
All the the emotions he couldn’t convey
In his muddle of a puddle in this world of today.

    I was once much like this mantis, but then I learned that I had to speak all those things which I carried in my heart in order to heal.
