"Precious Stones"
A Non-Musical
DRAMATIS PERSONA
THE SCHOOLS OF POETICS
CAM-PO  (Lord High  Poetry)
Lang-PO (Sister of U S of A)

Method of polishing poetry,
first tumble your words,
let them
   T
     u
       m
         b
           l
            e
by these means you attract
the putative reader's eye
then give them pause for thought

before you bring in baroques
or as they say state-wise the rocks,
rough pearls, go down a few registers
to give the punters, something street-cred,

you could in a variation, tumble them
in mouth-Walsh, fucking great, abrasive
language, sends them into ecstasy,
so now, your poem looks mighty impressive,
and it is hard, and erudite, like uvararite,

you can let your poetry
t
  u
    m
       b
        l
         e
again, you can add some form of detergent,
to get off the shite, to get it looking just right,
add a few latinate words, work on another cut,
he is in the toilet, his veins exposed, and WOW

all these colors/colours and crystals, Man  
and NOW
you see, it has the beginnings of a pattern.
