English: The Crooked House Tudor half-timbered house on Michaelgate (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
This crooked house for crooked folk
Secrets are silent, yet are spoke
Its crooked values are the yolk
For crooked dreams that they invoke
This crooked life for crooked men
Completes a cycle, starts again
The dearest enemies talk as friends
So crooked liars make amends
This crooked place for crooked souls
With evil plans and putrid goals
Gives crooked players crooked roles
The ancient bell, so crooked, tolls
This crooked parlour for crooked friends
Where infamy will darkly trend
With crooked wealth they flagrant, spend
Where crooked folk meet crooked ends

Incredible Helen even though it is quite dark it is still very charming. Your rhyming and flow are extraordinary up there with the literary greats
Wow, that is so kind of you, I’m quite humbled by such a generous comment! 🙂
Why is it that crooked always conjures up crooked thoughts of crooked people. What if this crooked house lent us a crooked view outside of the box?
That’s another way of looking at it! 🙂 🙂
We are the sound of two mouths laughing!
LOL! 🙂 🙂

Me either, would be quite disorienting I would think!! 🙂 🙂
