Contradictions
March 20, 2018
Contradictions let them stay
Don’t think to reason them away
They are our Meatloaf, heavy metal
They are our carving irons and kettle
Salute their nightlight bright obscurities
Adore their sagacious efficacious absurdities
Amours, allures, propellers of sweet life
Of a sharper blade than any Bowie knife
There on a ledge a pledge tiptoes peep over
Empty abyss, a single kiss, a hand picks clover,
An emblem reminder, a controversial wonder
Hallmark of hung conundrums we live under
Levelling out the polkadotty mottled surface
Of oddities does no person a general service
Elated, grateful, let them feather, fly, display, and go
Happy in seeing, and thinking not to know
Your need carbuncles, rumpling head’s sunk inner tube
So as to fit up factoids as a standard common rule
A readily rough measure, support against extremity
And something to savour, delectate; a couture vanity
So sever the helix lacerate its thread
So as to magnify, crown, an encephalic head
To stand upon perfect proofs apropos; albeit sped
On blurted certitudes
Too fulsomely tootyfruity to sustain recount;
Even the laid out surface of this circlet wound about
The gladsome globe itself returns as object and a ground
Of vol-au-vent temerity, grand surveys it does confound
College is power say know by rote affiliations
Sanity dwells in paradigm-design white coats
Shored on a sore assurance; pregnant learning floats
Like continents
Passing into and passing from is all, and all things flow
Cardboard Canutes stood sentinel, en guard would seemly trow
Being known as knowing like as elevated upstarts crows
Interrupters of the tides, or rather make the show
Here can be knowledge unforgiving, ineffaceable
Unfaceable although traceable to Eden’s mortal sin
Fear of the fire inspires desires for fatal instruments
Which fire, it sires, engenders
Know what we know is nothing; insignificance
Salted and peppered, trussed up with impediments
Placed so to baste amongst a stew, as savour added
To a flimsy dish of pickled fish, it's also known as - you
When all the razz is over, a pooped pavolva, bimbo’s donkey derby done
When we agree, unanimously, absolute exception none
Then we shall see, and ubiquitously, no palaver, nor yet conundrum
Everything, and that what is true lives, everything, in The Son
