Meter and Rhyme

It's said to move like

this..stop-start, stop-start

like a sullen auto refusing to comply

with its operator -and the words, so arcane they must have

been hand delivered from an untouchable

source of divinity

iambic, pyrrhic, choriambic and amphibracic

what ever can they mean and

of course secondarily

can they be understood enough to make even

half-hearted progress?
