Poetry, heaps of it
ubiquitous, smug
selective sort of
scrap for the
discerning palate
the truing
of a rambling tongue;
masticate it,
smear it on the gums
dregs drawn of
gregarious texts and
swallowed with a
spoonful of hot air
twice daily to induce
well-digested intellect
additionally, has
a slimming effect.
