If I thought
As strongly of the ‘Matrix’ movies,
Like Doc, wouldn’t
I think AD was a figment,
Inside of a computer?

If I thought
As patriotically of a
United States, like Andrew,
Why couldn’t I digest truths,
Inside a mental-mind?

If I thought
As musically of experienced
English-states of frames, like
Peter, shouldn’t I, ultimately,
Be freed by music?

If I thought
As numerically of growths
Gross, like Lawrance, couldn’t
I understand peripheral loss,
As a development plan?

If I thought
As differently of worded
Affairs of humanity, like David,
Why wouldn’t I laugh,
Like a god of displacements?
