L’Esprit de Geometrie et L’Esprit de Finesse
Yes, we are all
By gin or thought
Distraught.
The violence of reason rules
The subtle Schools;
A dependent clause can curl yer cowl.
I know such men
Of strange conclusions.
Martinis
Cold as the serpent and as wise
Have unfocused my eyes.
Their icy depths have moved my pen.
~apologies to J. V. Cunningham
