SCRATCH YOUR HEAD AND YOUR ASS





The saprophytic bacteria living in your anus is

A way of reasoning for those involved in cybernetics;

Every system contains a darkness seeking the light.



Fleas hide in thick animal hair unbeknownst to the

Host; we are akin to the wilder beast who have

Itches in their ass and on their back. We scratch our head



We scratch our head as if to bring to light all the

Unpondering things that reason fails us.  Our language

Is in the semiotics of packed  animal hair hiding light.



We try to soar to the heavens but our souls are porous

To the compost leaves on the ground trying to sink into

Our skin.  We are porous to all the rashes of reason.



Perhaps if we used no words at all then our psychopomp

Would not be traveling from earth to heaven to decipher

The discontinuity that dissociates us from ever knowing.



Continue to scratch your head and maybe you will finally

Understand poetry.  The poet is mad because, like Whitman,

They know that dragons of wisdom live in a raindrop.
