Einstein Rolls the Dice

Einstein Rolls the Dice the paparazzi were all over Einstein after he said make sure where the rope leads before you kick over the chair he wrote his own scripts now Further Adventures in Archaeo-astronomy tonight the constellation Vertigo a place of no equilibrium a hell of uterine contractions even though his head was elfin a little bone crushing ceremony and you are out on bail in an adorable subjective objective ruse the beginning of a tale of envy and betrayal you think science is pretty don't you I didn't mean to hurt anyone went the 911 call they finally brought him down with magnets the meters were going purple only minutes away from a fatal lap dance that could blacken the portals of infinity wizard artists awakened from a long sleep out of the closet for the thousandth time an army of derelict stockbrokers tried to stop them but the obsidian blade plunged like a fang and 73 virgin inflatable sex dolls made obnoxious leaking air sounds until all that was left was a talking skull divulging sacrilege and anathema flip the law of averages and you are in the citadel paradise being a system of payoffs if existence has a face we're it on the other side of the lens the light is tricky in there images fall feebly on the screen but you can't have art without surprise Al's life was now a gravitational anomaly no plot no narrative no story he was ready to sack a city his Igor hissed let's asteroid the planet but the mouse pad Ouija opened a channel to the vortex of utter charm and he stamped and splashed singing through the sewers of humiliation wearing his going to hell pants with only a mother's love for protection and thanks to the exponential growth rate of his informative deformities managed to lose all his pencils somewhere between hand and ledger unleashing pandemonium in all its ardor being that his hands were missing fingers most of them actually lost in a departmental budget cut left him all thumbs it was a close shave but Earth was saved From "Engine of Didactic Beauty" available on Amazon Artist Portfolio: http://walteralter.byethost32.com/

Thanks, Taoi...I like playing with irony in my poems. If you recall, Einstein is the one who originally said, as a critique of Quantum Physics and the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, that "God does not play dice with the Universe"
