	Yes, I suppose that's one of the things this could be about...

	As to art being kkunst, I think I had better say little; everything I
have gone to say... well

 Really it's a stupid word.
 All place names are, I suppose;
 forgotten, yet still uttered

 This man here, the fattened one,
 Stresses farcicality,
 Thinking English is God's word

 What kind of a bag is it?
 I know I'm being silly
 Yet... let me have my being

 Bag in what sense? Dad of whom?
 What sort of a register is this?
 Before you start to answer

 There is an effect backwards
 Of what is not meaning
 MOOB
 So loud some will not survive

 Daft as it all is phonemes
 Said experimentally
 Don't you call that utterance
