Wars Without Words
witchcraftless Wishing Well wishes wanderers well

Wise Wishing Well wearily watches
wanting wanderers waste wishes
while walking westward,
without weighing whether
wily, Wicked Water within
wants wherewithal wealth
while warping wishes wildcard-ly.
Wellaway! Wishing Well weeps weakly.
Walkaway! Wicked Water wins whilst,
without warding witchcraft, Well watches
writhing Water wantonly welcome
wishful wanderers walking
without wavering.
