Expository assays analyze the or
to determine the constituents
otherwise known as combatants
for identification is indistinguishable
from evaluation, given sum parts
indicate the whole everything
uncontractionable portmanteaus
whose missing vowels are signs
that the word is as good as it gets.
Another sentence for the paragraph
building argument from sediment
a house made of sand, built on glass
sure to see through the foundations
to all the lies beneath the truth
and carries weight without building muscle
as eager breathers hold themselves
waiting to see what there is to hear
as the well thought: how deep can I be?
Give dues to the foot and the end
where the library meets its index
and the glossary need no longer bother
definitions carry the same double hydrogen
for the same solitary oxygen
bubbling invisibly in the back of the reading mind
where theories are built on hypotheticals
questioning the scene for evidence
and finding that it all adds up to nots.
