Math vs. Sketchbook

Quantitative ease 
is a fragile imagination:
it's puzzle thinking,
one way out 
of this shattered whole.

I'd rather autodidact 
to the tune of open ends
with means for days
and matter
of any available type.

Short memories make long journeys
pass the beep test;
a sound can't become irksome
if you're always hearing it 
for the first time

just as the best meal
stands alone in comparison
to nothing you ate before. 

Widen, aperture ants,
your telescoping certainty
will take you to no place
while your wide-eyed wanderings
are everywhere's green allotment.
