Because Free Range Just Tastes Better
i went in search of a word
one i could
positively identify
as exactly the right word
perfect from all aspects
internally
externally
and every otherwise
the word must have the correct
sound
to stimulate the vertical cortex
in the exact manner
to fire the synapses
and perhaps bring about
one particular vision
into the mind that hears the
word
but i went too far
i missed it
now the word is lost in
the infinite sea of wordlessness
but i know
somewhere between my burst of birth
and
my eternal affair with Mistress Death
i have at least once
formulated
articulated and
orally pronounced the
word
