Where Ignorance Is Barricaded

try to guess my age
im not in the nomenclature
homeostasis the focus
of uncommon creatures
personality a drama
with Rome's creators
im not so quick 
to pick a person's savior
encourage till my epitaph
life outside the bed and bath
bless the spirits im a philomath
the chaos just beyond
fingertips

hit or miss 
a linguist 
still insists

a singers wish

a single fist
aerated 
the narration
a basement
where ignorance
is barricaded

with a fire at the station
