.you'd first have to draw a pipe: to get away with writing beneath it: ceci n'est pas une pipe - because how could you, write ceci n'est pas une pipe onto a pipe... like you might... write anything on a brickwall - in that there will never be any graffiti on water - xerxes tried to whip the sea into submission... the testament of fire; etc.

an epipheny congested by a trickle
of euphemisms...

  when it's not a metaphor...
       when it's all too charcoal scribbled
on an umbrella...

umbrella: would it be necessary
to write the words: 'for rain'
   on it...
   or perhaps... 'for shade'?

   would it be necessary to write
on a hammer: 'for nails'...

   that there is a brick wall...
           and that there's graffiti on it:
would it be "necessary"
to write on a bed somewhere:
    'for sleep'...

and each piece of paper had
a small primpt prompt:

         'to be written on'...

                   beside the... ceci n'est
pas une pipe...
but that's a conundrum
of drawing a pipe
and writing something beneath
it...
but another thing:
writing something on the actual
thing: rather than extracting
from the thing an image...

         and then some scribble...

to write on a piano:
         violin...
             or even: 'this could be'...
said piano as a violin...

to scribble onto a tree: 'lung'
and 'last, lasting breath'...    

          to write on a wooden
floor: 'gravity'....
to write on a ceiling:
                insert helium balloons
"hanging"...

                would it be required...
to write on one chopstick 'fork'
   and on the other chopstick 'knife'?
because...
   the beijing limbo delight
is a whole steak...
     it's not all prepared by the guv'nor
of grub...

  ever see a stake beside chopsticks...
or... this great loaf of pork...
chopsticks somehow included...

like... no no no...
       it wouldn't be enough to write
a noun on a thing in "question"
or perhaps the verb onto it: to do "something"
with it...

                tired wood - excavations
of soul when borrowing
carbon dioxide snippets...

   and i can listen to lionel nation all
day long...
           the topic is all h'america...
any part of me involved
stressing proximity...
           none of it...
it's not about "what" is juggled...
                 it's about "how" it's juggled...

ryan barnes and the deep-voice
of my godmother...
that third party associates
at a baptism...
        i try to tell the difference...

to scribble on a toad: tau omicron alpha delta
in acronym shorthand...
or... the onomatopoeia: "burp"
or the closest brought to kneel:
approximate of...

                  it's beside what the toad
is or does...
        a suitcase of details
hidden like a 'omb: because...
           best, akin...
floating on botox...
                              the best hot air...
and a sharpening
of knots...

                           to write on a cucumber:
gherkin?
which has to involve pickling...
yeah...
               and to **** on a lemon:
is not to write onto a face:
a grimace...

to write on a hand: fist...
beside... a shaking of or waving with...

excavating the concept of a tie
from bedsheets...
                because there's always
the minus... inconveniently berry 'brella...
and the mushroom think-tank
moveable shake...

best fwend: scooping 'iggles...
   and spooning a loiter...
                
to write on a ******: megiddo the altar
of moloch's birth...
to write on a phallus:
obelisk the harvester
of burlesque...
                trapping "cool"...

   i.e. graffiti: if i were not to write
on a brick wall...
              because...
          if i were to draw bricks...
on a canvas... reserved for...
   a school of the flemmish artists...

                     grit... grr... and a variant
of grizzly... lulled to a faking
skim-reading of: believe me - i too sleep.
