Let he who passeth here at least come know the shadows of the knoweable
As his own always be as uncertain and as unknowable as his own moving shadow cast round a darkened corner
never cross his path |

The halls of competition
Mind lessons
Classless names
Nameless classes
Get their designations
And moral rating
IDentities and rememberances
A week before the classes end
and competitive examinations begin
and live and die
commence
until a later time at
commencement
time
When relativity becomes second
Shakespeare third
to
paper weights
inscriptions, placards,
invitations
and the honored
and named faces
of only all the pens had
graded all the exams
and papers
And whatever subjets and objective passing
to the next and meaningfull
level
of all our lives advancements and fast paces
What I know of Da Vinci, Shakespeare
Einstein, Longfellow,
come only worth a short and
blurred relection
in my own lifes handwriting and
trucking
of a new Mr. Detail's learned
new skill of regirgition
of anything
seen heard or swallowed
in any setting
form
constitution
composition
shape size
or mass
or weight
of anything at all
spoken written or thought
of any cohesion
comprehension
of any of its' possible
parts and
constituents
of anything at all in any form...
regirgitated beyond reognition
for the interpretation and competitive grading
by the all the remembered names
and exempletory faces
of the present and contemporary staffs
Occupied all the halls
Roamed the pathways
Fueled the night lights
Lectured at
all the fifth degree
Universities
Dormatories
and
Fraternities of men ,mice , grass, trees
the fields of doubt and contrast
Where upon I built my talents
chased the latencies
renewed
and recapitalized
transparencies
of figures grown beyond
the mathematical tables
and cafateria labels
To a new and renewed
expert REGIRGITATE
as easily swallowed
as mine new
advancement and polished
polish speaking
language
is as easily accepted
and difficultly
learned
Among the Exempletory Lessons
of all the Names and Faces
Roam and Lecture
The Lecture Halls
of all the
universal and scholarly
Lecture Hall Places
Where I gathered and added
both Da Vinci Einstein
Newton Aristotle and Plato
To my mental list
of
names of faces
