1395

What he invented is an ambiguous machine.
The warehouse has thousands of them
In unlabelled crates. One such device
Apparently keeps the space cool in August;
It is the only warehouse people rush to
In summer; you can see the lines of forklifts
From 30,000 feet. The resentment competition
Shows no signs of stalling, by the way,
So if you come to town, protect your mood.
