hey, it came about that i was
and it was thus that i am
or is
and will be was
but so of now i will be
if only yet but not still a while
and if so i'll do some thinking
and some thoughting
or stand or eat (or sometimes both) or sometimes neither
and if by day
so too at night
I'll come to these
the dead length of
heavy words
which writ by men of learned haste
i,ve chomped the morsel of
their fat and narrow tidy
skinny wide messes
in chapters and verse
yet what will stodgily
revolve to fore is central
the chiefest realization
of my riggling dearth
is that all is simply unsimple
a great prfounding
a small and illustrious sound
(everything is paradox
so too are i as you
and you or i
a truths a lie
or lying truth
and if you listen hard enoughyoucanhearalmostnothingrattledeeplyfirmingorfirmlydeepening . . ,
