scatter, matter
your angle is gabriel
and don't call me
with your capital slime
i will e and e and e
until i a and a and a
with a couple p plurals
to decide it
and don't ask either
there won't be
satisfaction
in answer
or sobriety
letting metaphors free
was the last thing
the zoological society did
before it turned to pure math
sequences defy paranoia
and go from before
to after
with the aplomb
of a fig tree's method imaginary
(academic shriek)
clutch those oysters
they're sure to pearl
at the moment when you're a
chagrin monster at the apex
of a rolled out cloister
that claims to be open merit seas
while the seized cargo
capsizes unto itself
and spars with verbs and towns
