On The Second Day



If it wasn’t a case of abatement then the rest came 
on the second day; no favours tuned flutes, played
airs randomly to razed ears but we rested easy - in 
retrospect you’d see that plane best as a flat & last 
resort to planar hegemony in debt to its own ideas; 
who’d’ve reckoned there wasn’t even a conspiracy 
colluding to keep the damn thing afloat - unless we 
missed reference to the needy survivors boating to 

Distant coasts where we’ll ride th’ fast shore-break 
to strands of perennially remaining reason, if, - and 
only if - we make copies of everything we perceive 
to be causal in nature to our peculiar predicament - 
but then th’ rest came on the second day and thus 
we regained a perspective that saved our sanity …
