"IDLE DECLARATION
Til spun, we spool.
Lives drown in woe.
We fill an abyssal gap.
Art--as I told a sad lot--
is a trap, a glassy, banal
life we own in words' evil
loop, sewn up, slit."
--@poitevin
Reaction of opening, symmetrical.
"Always, in whatever I wrote--prose or verse--I have had a burning desire to be explicit; beset always, however carefully I had written, by the charge of obscurity." --Marianne Moore
