Auspisticism is a keychain.

Auspisticism is a chain on a wallet,

A cog in a clock, a nail in a table.

Without one piece, the entire thing would fall apart.

Auspisticism is conciliatory.

Not sympathetic, simpering, nor sorry.

It is a firm hand, a shake of a head, a glare that makes chills run down your back.

Auspisticism is hate.

Not an enflamed rage, but a smoldering odium.

A flame to be put out, until the irons are cold.

Auspisticism is ashes, the result of what has been burnt.
