Assonance

selected words, same sound


                                       So this stupendously asinine, selfish son
                                Speaks seriously, softly as his father’s
                        Soul sinks: ‘Sort some stash!’

                Soon seeks casinos, snacks;
        Is super-saucy as Suzie, Sandra,
Samantha (also Sarah) snort, sing songs.
Sadly, his sack swiftly reduces as coins spent.
Suddenly, some say severe shortage strikes city.

Starving, son seeks sovereigns-source; succeeds. Sows snort, snuffling scanky, secreting stuff. Son envies scran; senses startlingly  switched, as sunshine shed inside psyche. Secure staff scoff; shall say sorry, seek chances – service supplier?
Starts slow excursion.

Say, servant! See same as?
So, some distance – father’s
                                                          Smothering son’s face: kisses,
                                                       Shoes, threads, silver circle.

                                                ‘Slaughter Daisy, set furnace!
                                        Son was somewhere, sought;
                                Was stiff, soonest squirming.
                        Say thanks as God’s hands
                Supply some superb results!’
