Laying Plans

How are we 
supposed to know 
that it's a "spare the 
air" day? Certainly 
it has a sort of
maverick quality 
to it, but that doesn't
necessarily mean 
we're living in tough 
times; & crash dummies 
in minicars always
fare comparatively 
poorly in collisions 
with the economic 
consequences of the 
high Italian budget 
deficit. The symbolic 
use of flowers dates 
back to antiquity. Why 
must we sacrifice & 
shop in a one-room 
shack when a whole 
mall awaits us?

According to Leibniz

When the mojo is
working, ivory 
can be found
within the pith of 
sugarcane. It 
is said to be 
environmentally
friendly, lighter 
than air, can be 
posted without an 
envelope. Only 
the Letters of a 
Portuguese Nun 
are a poignant 
exception, but 
even they display 
a similar charge, 
obey the same 
mass magnitude.   
In summer, when
the louvers are
left open & the 
songs of the no
longer endangered 
species float in
from the desert, 
it is the best of 
all possible worlds.
