Cleaning keyboard keys discretely suggests
that writing needs less contamination; and if
an inchoate attention to what ‘fingers’ might
bring to the party betrays crumbs dusting th’
desk like dervishes whirling in a supplicatory
expression of their wild beliefs, then it’s time
to ban feasting - and thus one must impress
the discipline of cleansing and creative fast
Reckon it’d last about a week at best - altho
the idea’s great, there’s an epicurean history
to contend with appealing weakest ‘choices’
of such drastic measures, deflating pleasure
it offers free, &, in a culinary sagacity, it isn’t
as if all of this writing isn’t actually that feast
