sullen gradient:
 
art is complete
in itself, we add
to it & it is
complete again:
 
as per Eliot:
 
the best pop
songs excite:
 
a Latin negli-
gence, subtract
 
a species or two
& the world,
likewise, remains
 
complete:
 
earth imagines us:
 
blunt treadle:
mauve lepton:
 
a thick music,
mass to thrust:
 
Plantagenet:
 
the voice running
into the corn-
 
field,  into the
cyst of the corn:
