By Isaac Daramola
they gave no attention
to my words
rather love a life without
poetical complication
far they tempered the seat
with movements
which make them feel in control
of sincere null
a fooling of the brain
it’s one choice of living to hope
to pick the baton
on a lemniscate track and shit the bed
then scrub
for double couple years
or so
but trampling on bright bulbs
from the deep
feeling poetry is just an enigma of grammar.
