OVERDRIVE



 

It is paradigmic commentary

On the speed of light

That the twinkling voyageur craft

Of other compulsive wanderers

Bear some who, through deep

Analysis and deconstruction,

Still hold to the failed deduction

That there exist objects

Bigger than a breadbox and

Smaller than Jugoslavia.
