Allopath

the conventional use of language
writing, ink, and paper making

the evolution of the dot matrix printer,
binding options, formats, and fonts

the static stacks of short stories
novels, essays, and poetry

the absolute flip-flop between
what is correct and what is true

Your Acerbic Voice

tantalizes and taunts
takes five, turns the corner

fixes a gaze on a phial
of headache tablets

gliding gazelle-like
from plinth to cornice

timely and tautological
through thin and thin
