Mercury must be up to something:
\nA prick as old as that.
\nI used to blame astrologers
\nFor wondering,
\nI used to be
\nA metaphysics scrooge.<\/p>\n
In this vessel of a paper cup
\nSail playground chips
\nAnd we must jangle
\nToward the mysterious workings
\nLike alley cats
\nThe defiant incoming motion
\nDangerous opportunity
\nOn this skirt
\nThat no symbol invoked is insignificant
\nBut lambs
\nThat falling trees in absentia resound
\nA little ambiguously
\nBut are well thought of
\nCalculable stresses.
\nWe don’t want to bow
\nOr strangle
\nBut holler a bit
\nAnd bear every relation
\nTo reality
\nFaith for understood reasons,
\nNot gullibility for servitude
\nDevotion only to devotion
\nSedition only to sedition
\nSolace and company who said that.
\nBut my drawings may not be
\nSo intoxicating a confection as
\nThe top ten holy books.
\nI’m sorry.
\nI’ve let you all down.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
