Classic Poem

Lose track of where seven Moabite
Everything the stove as agent you
Devolved and basically are
Spunk in a minute reprobated
Adverse elemental approbation gelatinous
Curio sung to deeds socked with
Ginger and gold sullen and then
Surrendered by cave-lit trestle
Of simpering slug-down egress.
Or parts of guarantee cleaned
Out pockets an unclasped shake
Rant about owing restricted
Tributary and wakes on
These stupid tires implements
Trashed in an overgrown bestiary
In a vest of tiers. Notable
Inclination: " Too much belly an' no'
Eno' brain. " Sermons of
Vibration who'll holler before
Discrepancy tuck jug —
Tinsel of titularly vague versions
Verging behind programmable dual
Dipsticks. Everything seen so far
Away and more produce on other
Seismographic orifice bundle branching
Toxemia inadmissible as to stuck-up
Steam stadium circuits bored cauldron.
Neptune's climb from the ducks to the
Decks (oilcloth) solvent to dementia
Spud repertory condominium. Flown
Boast (Kelly-green incapacitator): which
Is very natural ( " I do not care for the part about
Pirates " ), sometime aquatic ( " Solange had to say
It was over a long time before " ), unconscionably
Pede-like ( " the soldiers marched valiantly
To their reward " ) and preternaturally triumphant
( " Available evidence suggests a lack of
Further routes of inquiry " ). Periodicity
Or piquant insolvency (not currency but the
Fear of is the). Rain rain
Raining inside my tailored suit. " Twelve
Yards, only twelve yards over, at the
Intersection of Vein and Vine — another
Lawn being mowed! Another
Gracious day! " Not to have to
Not to say, not to have to have
To, not to have to prey, not to
Have to, not to have to feel
Not to, not to have to have to
Say. Pink lemons on the orange
Lime tree.
