Sum of (poem)
Sum of
Long patience, the sort a society of resurrectionists
Calls its like-to-like decode of
Low resonance
A Plan, cryptographical embed, that which
Sifts the dead-weight from the Superman
A blat from the alpenhorn
In figure
Reverbs of duty-bound orders, secret Errants who have stood
Before the longbow, and sacrificed the ear
Disfiguration
Their incredible sangfroid, told here, within symbology
The base of course has not the means
Long patience
In any fabbing con of two or three
Scionage of names, made—
White plus Hurst Ington Smith
Mill or Chance Forest Mont
Coll or Berry, Ton, Wall, Steven, Charles
Bride, Robert, Illing, Brook, East, West, North, South
More, Less, Lor, Ness
Collton, Whitebrook, Westmont, Bridington, Southmore
Chancelor, Charleshurst, Millforest, Lorilling, Westforest
Montlorness, Westillingmore, Forestsmithness, Millberrybrook
Eastmont-Brookilling, Weston-Southlorness, Robertmore-Bridebrook
Northchance-Stevenbrookington, Wallberryton-Collingness-Westmoreless
Wallcharlesouthington-Montchancewhiteforest-Northbridillinghurst
Long patience
Lineages and colonnades, coincide, libraries scent of hide
Topographies unplumbed Tarsessian astrologies
Godless random cracking loose of plates
Not that fate. Not fate at all
All spared, stars fixed in skies
Orbits corresponding to scannable lives
There is your Holy One, if you like
They must shine
Sum of
And Crying
Four-leaf clover
