1276

THE DECLINE OF THE REAL

The newspapers crazy paving
The lateral file
Are owned
And operated

Understanding beauty
Is neither a good nor a bad idea

Is is is
I am I am I am

In the depths of the same
Come many sine waves

They are thinking about taking a year off
The dozen whose insights we mediate

I suppose there are worse gigs
Than being the medium
In which light is suspended

I want that to mean something
And then, Pinocchio-like, it does
