Wednesday Words – verbs misplaced are poetry

By tobyscales on January 11, 2012

THESE
gleeful emotions, sonorous and
profound: words words words
trippingly tapping
my tongue, Lolita –

Alone in my apartment forever,
full and empty now no words to punish,
nor doubt dismember
just glee, glee, glee –

the delight of
rustification
and
Mephistopheles,

the triumph of
fidelity
and Calaban:

a sycophantic hieroglyph
indelible, at ease –

such nonsense gibberish,
love.
