Something diferent I hope.
today your reasoning
is concerned with Jules Verne however briefly
and 80 days and the balloon you saw
that had something to do with five whole weeks
but all up in the air
all up there somewhere
where the cirrus blows
and the hurricane grows
in spite of our knowledge of nearly everything
to continue
you have to admit to names
semingly at random after confessions of crime
or as a form of redemption
for to name is to be real -
have brilliance in the hegemony of a smile
that sounds satisfactory
with the posityion of detail that ultimately escapes us all -
gives no focus to convention
or a differentiation of parts beyond form
beyond the dissembling of reason
beyond the repetition of small concerns
that resist the urge to universalise
like a transient who is so poor
he is born only to be poor then die
let this poem be known as how to be didactic with a smile
or - repetition then you die
