A Long Work of Length and Longitude

Verticality,
a vertical vertebrate
inveterate, considerate,
oblate, obligated,
the monks have on brewed
authority: the ethereal is 
an anchoritic fact that 
garden geometry is 
a disguise for knowns,
an otherwise gnomic hat;
p-hat, p-hacked, p-SAT,
give it a test and standards
and stardust will follow,
moonbeams from Ulysses
to the beginning of Oedipus Rex;
grave engravers made the von 
Humboldt brothers enjambment enjoyers,
linguistically and on the latitudes
these naturals marketed the Prussian
mystique to caribou and pythons and
gravitational caves; stop, semi-hold-on,
it's going down that the universe case
capitalizes the capitol dome with crow
best eaten cold
a financial center, folded into thirds,
with an unbalanced sheet dallying 
in income abatement via debt 
instrumentals, an orchestral promise 
to play and never to pay;
interesting accrues itself
across time and without space
now that Internetty pots squat 
on the edge of a sinusoidal uncertainty,
a co-sign of the times that trapezoids
will void the agreement that was 
meant to die with us apart,
or so that third and first person
wish for seconds at the table
of twisted soupy bowling (alone)
that made for disassociation 
according to diagonal and participle manuals
whose provenance is irreproducible 
in its special theory of gel futility;
sounds bite when they jet hard and not high enough,
that's an engine thing, with a little kerosene 
to help the music go down,
and a little prayer for the 
whale oil salesman
who never could have said snake
as a full-on mammal 
scaling the sides of the asymptote
at the rate of infinity per second
per second
per second;
jerk, 
jerk again,
jerk chicken and fish and fellow,
jello-- bold enough to gather
italicized countries,
down to the boot
where the consciousness knows
you didn't read to the end
but you'll never tell
as your arguments 
wage argument
inside the ellipses 
from hell dot purgatory dot dodgy train-spar;
bellow another bellows,
bed-hellos, 
don't apostrophe to pluralize,
your eyes are double regardless
of how the esses are punctuated.
