double-binary universes

to the barbershop where
Clive has cut his hair
for the last forty years or so

Comparing themselves to common things. Great
Gems of noble birth, like stones of the earth
By low self value make havoc of fate
Pearls may think themselves scabs of old sores
Young diamonds...

Beyond the reach of the...

They seem heavy like darkness

Hope for the vison
Hope for the feelings
And the...

A Modest Proposal: Sestina

I just want five minutes, just to pitch
My killer screenplay for a killer film.
