one aspect of the tetragrammaton i call the vowel-catcher, the other the surd-enforcer.

there has been so much, that i thought:
that doesn't deserve to be written:

like citing the Odin riddle:
            why have i but one open?
to see a crow better,
   minus twin eye drunk -
  and the subsequent whirl
                                         into X,
mind you:
                the arabs call me *impostor
...

a heaven for a man involves 72 barrels of
mead: rather than virgins...

i still see a crow clearer with one
eye than two...
        i forget to mention:
            there's a trebuchet's worth
of nose, and moustache to mind...
unless you think: that is supposed
to encourage sight...

        pity the fool who chose gold
and left mead untouched:
                    meed... i already gratified
stating the grapheme "problem";
i am still not customed at having
to find dyslexia in Poland...
    an orthographic probl;em?
sure:
     but you see, English as a language
breeds these poor souls
who make spelling mistakes
without ever having crafted
orthography...
    
    i like drinking and then juggling
one eyeball into the socket of
the other...
             one eye closed:
****! another opens!
     being one eyed allows one
to inspect the beak that doesn't
peck...
         a second mouth,
fourth in a lineage that encompass
a "thought": that moral θ: or an ought i?
oh look, here comes
a door and key ΦΘ...
               oh look,
           the Greek tetragrammaton
of the four wheels:
                           ΦOΘΩ,
otherwise known as: fo- fo- forward!
Ω = a woman in akimbo.
ha ha...
          an iota compass needle!
  look at it: upright, sideways...
         now i know the reason why
there was enforced diacritical marks
on the Iota: trojan λ...
        tell them apart
                      l I |
                            obvbiously L i /
                it's good to know that
a second Rome descended upon the people
having crafted LX = 60 -
   a variant of spelling...
               they built a *******
coliseum using this?!
           we already know that
Çyrīl thought himself to be a greek...
fate: magnified...
   russia being greece,
               america being rome...
         and the debate:
                  is turkey: really troy?

i summoned the four horsemen anyways:
poetry is not supposed to make
language a practicality...
  in the same way that painting
is not supposed to be used in
      crafting traffic signs!

it is about time to craft a crypto-lingua
by the concern of deviating from
the study of "lingua",
   i.e. goat = /ɡəʊt/ -
  what's that? aßkew? slanting?
    sort of?!
                       **** it:
english was a blank canvas with regards
to applying orthographical sensibility
                           anyway:
            orthography & sensibility...

when a vacuum's worth of ******
opens: you don't shun away from it...
  **** it... fill it...
                     if there's a crypto-currency
then there must be a cryptolingua:
   why should princes and bishops hold
sway on what is to be coded?
          
        i can bypass the study of linguistics
and their sly & the family stone
alphabet of: Copernicus really didn't help,
with an epsilon looking in
                         a mirror upside-down ə
and omega upside-down ʊ:

                           i had to use the greek
terms for invoke the letters:
        because otherwise i'd be singing
castrato catching letters in ah oh, eh, i(c)h...
       mah, nah, peh pah poh?
          
    ******* bonkers:
   so said the kangaroo.

           i can't even begin to understand
the diacritical marks employed by the modern
greeks... or should i say: Byzantines?

       pedantic sheep-shaggers:
Çyrīl contra Çyríl...
         it's good to know that the majority
is literate...
              now we can move
     into the second phase of literacy.
