King
N. Epal’s Organophosphates, image by Daniel Y. Harris
excerpts from Residual Sonnets
Sect
In
his first public statement
since
taking an unknown
dose
of organophosphate
insecticide,
the King of Nepal
said
that he was struck speech-
less
by the notation, fingering,
&
keyboard diagrams under-
lying
the stylistic aspects
of
the artwork of Wassily
Kandinsky.
How by the
removal
of one element of cDNA
they
could be used as a sex-
pheromone
trap to lure blood-
sucking
pests to their deaths.
Shrinking ad budgets
Were
there any persons of color —
apart
from those who wanted to
spend
a fortune on antique French
Furniture
or a brown Lolita dress
which
featured ruffles on the hem —
in
any of the traveler reviews &
photos
for the hotel? Extremely
complex
chromatograms are often
very
difficult to interpret. Better to
use
Art Deco fortune telling cards.
They
produce fast, deep colors
on
cottons when the velocity μx
is
null, & are easily obtained at
your
local sheet & duvet store.
