Correlations

"Reason only knows what it has succeeded in learning..."

Fyodor Dostoevsky

Notes From the Underground

Correlation upon correlation,

strong correlation's that hold up

the glass pillars of natures

Rome.

The points all scatter

in a positive manner towards

the center of Po flowing

the riches of broken

pigeon wings through Milan,

as if heaven began

on the Apennines.

When reason returns

and sees that another rape

has occurred more devastating

than in the beginning,

a correlation is made,

when one lonely bird is

gently lifted from blackening

traffic consuming the Coliseum,

and set on a colorless

corner of a gas station

to await its fate other than

that of the wheel.
