The Blind Man and the Limited Edition Minotaur
by Bertram SparagmosThe footnotes writhe and turn around
The text
That was afore its meaning to frame with anecdotal
Caress and catch
Like that sad tree
Who...
********
**lost**
********
...m has grown through the center of the earth
And a more solemn
Fate is none
Than to
Hold
Are stairwells only as deep as we allow
or perceive
And the architect of retribution should have his plan
Hindered
By neither architrave nor pediment?
The key concept
is if you believe
In the one Big Sum...
Or the Parts. 09/20/2012 Posted on 09/20/2012

Each step is understanding and the amount of steps varies between reader and writer. The destination may be different for each reader but the writer... the writer is the handrails. |
