My 'Serve': a Banana-Bred Meterhyme

     Below find a bananagram bred 
from eight pentagrammic seeds. 

Sing a song of Medgar Evers,
one which veers from bad to worse.
Sing one more, of Randy Veres,
one he hears as nonsense verse.
     Sing in Occitan of veser,
in that tongue it means to see.
Sing in French of sev'ral reves --
c'est-a-dire of dreams -- mais oui...?
     Finalize with lines which sever
all things real from fantasy.
Serve with zeal but see you never
denigrate reality.

     The eight seeds are: EVERS, 
VEERS, VERES, VERSE, VESER, 
REVES, SEVER and SERVE.
