Fool's Illusion Poem by Robert Sheridan

Squanderer of time/false, or misleading
Extravagantly wait/cobwebbed trimming
Never an adulterer/deceived & delusions
Pretend to believe/false mental images
Seek a soulmate/a mocking character
Gudgeon hoaxed/considered magical
Little enthusiasm/fondly mourned
Pureed & stewed/blinded vision
Matches, burned/reflection of dull light
Inflated bellows/rippling mirage effect
Erasmus insult/unveiling of worn silk
Visceral cavity/to have & have knot
Always a folly/indo-European roots.
