go where the words take you


the poet is a fraud and so is the audience

the fraud is a fraud and so is the truth

and every tense some not yet invented

let grammar enclose the found air of words

go where the words take you

the cresting wave of meaning

there so long as you ride it out

and create something so fraudulent

it fools even yourself

and in fooling, bogs you down

to the weighty act of typing

over and over and over

for 10,000 hours

this crime against proof

read out your life

and in death

revise
