desecrated

(Note to readers: overnight, I seem to have developed a profound injury to my right hand, so I've had to write a poem that just uses the left hand letters. Apologies.)*
 
beasts at seeded grasses grazed,  
at vert swards, barbed warfare crazed,  
bravest, wettest crawdads fazed:  
zebra, badgers, steeds bedazed.
 
reeded area: waders tweeted.  
vexed debaters cede, reseated.  
steadfast traders swayed, retreated;  
carers, stewards, beasts - defeated.  
 
afterwards...  
 
ravaged streets were desecrated;  
trees, deceased, sat devastated.  
savage serfs resegregated;  
aftereffects reverberated.
 
arrested wastewater cascaded,  
scarred, creased, severed cedars faded.  
detracted stargazers sea waded,  
resected artefact evaded.
 
 
*Actually, I'm just kidding. My hand is fine!
