Prologue to Poetry

![](

I request that they take a lyric

what's more, hold it up to the light

like a shading slide

or, on the other hand press an ear against its hive.

I say drop a mouse into a lyric

also, watch him test out,

or, on the other hand stroll inside the sonnet's room

also, feel the dividers for a light switch.

I need them to waterski

over the surface of a lyric

waving at the creator's name on the shore.

Be that as it may, all they need to do

is attach the ballad to a seat with rope

furthermore, torment an admission out of it.

They start beating it with a hose

to discover what it truly implies.
