Perception is reality.


Can one not speak in verse to the page?
As if it were Darwin instead of David?
The words would flow better,
and not be hyperboled from California to the Atlantic.

That act of styling would not work well.
Well, not in this sense of Socrates opposed to Tom Cruise.
The words would be simpler,
and with that, be a strike in the baseball game of wordsmiths.

Can this be rhetorical?
Only if the force of gravity on the moon is
six times lighter than on Earth.

This poem on politics of poetry shall be written in verse.
Only allowing the meaning to be mass, and the structure, weight.

Yes I created a word. Hyperboled (v.) /ha??p?rb?lid?/ hy-pur-b?-leed: To become a hyperbole.
