Life Among the Illiterates



words carve
a larger cognitive cave

a prose infusion
a verse inoculation

leverage the advantages of manuscript
over monument

one life is so short
there is only time to make one poem of it

a beautiful blasphemy
against the lies of coercion

a beautiful code
that illuminates, not obscures

read me not for my errors
but for my felicities
