this scribbled verdure his verbiage
caricature in service
of hyperreal nerdy literature
like the zeal of an earthly minister
Whitman on your faithless arm
swimming strong against the bards
reading “Plato’s Pharmacy”
the Kanye stans
involved in ancient wrath
their Yahweh’s plan
a concentration camp
a godless man
with God’s way with math
his architectural plot against the classical
growing wings to fly over
those following divine orders
and dissolving rhyme’s borders
diamond-florid, idle and formless
auditing courses
to conquer The Immoralist,
The Counterfeiters
more primitive
than Pound’s literature,
the cloud aglitter profound as scripture . . .
the definition of idiosyncratic; a beautiful, raw odyssey through depersonalization and free association against the canon and toward a new one Rhys Langston
