Scratch Papacy

Table scratches demand
to be called the titular
character, the enacted
redacted subtracted re-
action, on stoichiometry's 
golden folded nomenclature
hour. Our best is yet to 
prove itself worthy of
prepositions, so next
to refuses the middle 
seat and demands a
blank exit row. To
get there quicker 
is reason enough
to burn a hole in 
the lodestone layer;
magnets didn't keep
the Endurance out of
the ice. My eyes say
me but my heart says
stop talking. I curse
in my head and it
echoes across my
comfortable toes.
