Description Mr Ominous has a silver beard
   with a golden braid
defying the sagging years
a rust free shiney relic
he's Trying to be psycadellic

Spread eagled in a field
west of the train track
holding a buttercup to his chin
dimple doesn't like the yellow
stubble shows a gypsy fellow

friction on archaic skin
skipping the bacon back
singes marking graceful sin
bathing under liquid light
swimming in a sea of plight

Splintered feet deceive
a life gleeming luxury
of fresh art and
         modern coffee
a stumble through the trees
lead him to new ideas
   a time for common decency

He is Mr Ominous
  he wants to do more,
he wants to be more.
He wants to feel butter.

This is clearly about me.

And is awesome. But I don't drink coffee.

(I tease. It's still very lovely though.)

Clearly
...Ah, I wouldn't call you ominous cookie C:
Maybe you should drink coffee. This time of year it comes with gingerbread goodness.
And thankyou

Hot milk, or cocoa, is just as good with gingerbread.

Some people might just call me that, though.
