It's poetry time but there is no song in me
there are commercials for songs I should feel
"I wish to be shocking like an eel" is my sponsor
"I wish to be rounding like a wheel" is in my corner
I'm doing personal development 'cause my market
hasn't formed yet but is nascent if not a coming attraction

will you buy now?  Will you ascribe?

narratives duke it out on a would-be
storied night when you are playing
to discern the light and right
