"Metascript"
(an experiment with syllables)
[begun 11.15]
I was dared by muse
to write a poem
in set form,
each verse judged
by piece count:
an aim no man'd
claim sane.
Boldly, challenge
becomes intent.
Fingers, clockwork,
manage mental mission;
lexemes' wisdom fuels
poetic dominion.
Linguistic endeavour:
embody twenty-four
syllables octuply.
Consequential incarnation:
solitary humankindred's
meditative enlightenment.
Syllabification
autocommunicates
etymological
divisibility.
Hominidae-humanity's
alphabeticalexicon's
hemidemisemiquaver
dodecasyllabicalisationally
floccinaucinihilipilificated.
************************
My
failure
manifest
ultimately:
omega-locution's
incommensurability
(hippopotomonstrosesquipedalian);
verisimilitudinous
incapability
coalescing
twenty-four
into
one.
