PATRONAGE


rampant
&
    outrageous 

genuine
   synthesis
of
 scope

unpredictability
  flourishing 
in
  the 
     self- assured
devotion
to
  the
     well- connected

potential
     denied
authoritative 
    yet
      unruly 
notions
     prevail 
survive
   then
       thrive
cloistered
by
    design
