Iambic tetrameter, and not much with the sense-making
A Randomness Alphabet-Type Poem
by Besa 11.21.2005

A far ago and long away
When up the sun went down one day
A bit about above afore
And red the grass grew evermore

An aye-aye imp poked down its nose
Along clouds where the blue wind blows
Between before below beside
The glowfish swims the eventide

The moon in crescent new-night gleam
And of sweet music sea-mists seem
Connote convince conceal contrive
So into azure lilies dive

Of moving castles in the air
The foolish flames residing there
Derange devote delight deny
Investigating by and by

The king lost to the selfish girl
Who broke the crystal mix-match world
Esset emote evoke et tu
I have done it all for you

To what the when and why the where
To ask how all transpired there
Fillet finagle fire freeze
Query and unquestion these

Destroy the void, rebuild it all
Create a world and let it fall
Garrote git gander gable gaze
A twisting deep within the maze

Control the warmth, steal up the cold
And blurred illusion-dreams make bold
Hellacious heather hyper hum
To what extent will it be numb?

On whose to be these are can guess
But it is neither more nor less
Invent inter invite imbibe
So necessary to describe

Horizon in the foreground set
Remembering now to forget
Japonica judicial jam
Defenestrate now all that am

The summer day spent in the snow
Of sunrise silver-golden glow
Kathodos kindle kobold kite
In fading ever-present night

Transcendent of the deep abyss
Relapsing just enough of this
Liqueur library list libel
The wingless angels fate foretell

For citrus-scented, what grapefruit
But to be false the point is moot
Molasses mischief maybe mime
A little spice, a bit of lime

Dynastic shifting in an hour
The eddies of the mandate’s power
Neurotic nadir never name
Forever different still the same

A knowledge chicken catches fire
As Technicolor sheep retire
Outre omniscient orange ouch
Yes too it can and also grouch

A swaying jangle-shiny keys
From what doors will unopen these
Palatial paper penguin pin
And what else silently slips in

Inside and out, both mute and sing
Of stuffing dishes this is king
Quintuple quaver quiver quad
Turduckens are a trifle odd

The bramble-covered llama, ah
No place of safety that she saw
Restrain reduce reset retry
Diverging roads that sometimes lie

Galumph to gamble, push to shove
Fell troglodytic squirrels above
Surrounding sable silver shine
And oh this feeling once was mine

Our crisis goes from bad to worse
The order of the universe
Transmuting traipsing tangerine
That teacher really was quite mean

A marmotini, what to think
Maybe some strange exotic drink?
Upon up under ungulate
Beleaguered in this vapid state

The intellect knows to attain
Just plenty crazy to be sane
Vibration viper vicious vim
What clandestine affairs of NIMH

Rain drumming down on that clear day
And of its gentle strength belay
Whichever winnow woebegone
On and on and on and on

Unfeudal warring always ceased
But how grim specter it released
Xanthosis xyris xylophone
Alas that will it ever own

And see and know and understand
The royal flush in justice’s hand
Yakuza yeoman yearningly
Unless as blind you will not see

To grow in death and die unborn
To live only when shields are worn
Zymotic zealous zephyr zen
Around about begin again
