effortless rhyme is a curse
better observed in the blessing
than in counting the steps from better
to worse. All it takes is one increment
to bring us down.
And why would we consent to be such
an audaciously made-up clown?
These rings are not necessarily
a circus arrangement of non-overlapping
failed attempts at Venn diagram.
They could just as easily be entertained
as irrelevant, when and if
we believe we can.
