Some collections make cabinets beautiful.
My collection makes books taste foolish.
Conviction times obsession

Divide both sides by skepticism
and the whole line
gets cancelled out.
Destructive math,
deconstructive cath,
an untouched
urinary contact
beyond a zealous kidney
filtering out
even the leftover water.
