The Devil’s in the Perfections

To admit there is more than one
is to deny the universe 
its definite article.
The genuine article
would a singular singularity
and thus the only cause, source, and destination
for fervor and religion.
It's in the eyes of the computers,
of the books,
of the wishes and dreams and hooks,
the seeking toward the limit
that does not exist. 
Look to the graph,
the epitaph,
the laugh lines and their doppelgangers
for a sign, the signal, the signature movement
that might make might out of that which goes 
by right.
I may not believe
but evil does.
