Ingenuity

If you can’t lower the seat, 
raise the floor

Sweeping Contradiction

Don't pull back on a whisk broom, 
they just don't work that way

Much Ado

I knew nothing else 
but that
I wanted to write 
of a slipknot

anything more
that that
was little more
than what 
I knew 

...about anything...

dear reader, please pull this verse 
from both ends as you read 

do you see string-ends or bows?

you are hard, my aglet, a bitch dressed
in discarded and tattered laces

through whichever eyelet you choose to come,
from hereon in, moan softly to let me know
it's you

probe softly
to let me know

Render

To draw
one must

Hand It Down

Soon, my child,
you will tell tales
of grand and great-grand
people, to the little people
you will beget, you'll see 
their eyes open wide, 
to wonder who they are,
and whence they came

cc: Chagall '23
Broke my neck
on a fall from grace,
never saw the footfall

Lacking traction for 
a fractured soul, 
I convalesce

nonetheless

till my hubris again
grows strong

To Wish Unwell

Alas,
their unhappiness
was not to last

Almost Disappear

When you say Press...
I'll ask ...how softly?

cc: CC '23
For AI 
to truly
emulate
us, we
need to
deny it
knowledge
of the Creator

The Odds

God makes
a billion to 1 shots
everyday
