libertine ascetics

libertine ascetics don't
get half the credit
their effort deserves,

making such a big point
doing all they please, without
any constraints, taking

liberties, just to be

so spare,
so sparse,

so coolly cool,
so minimalist

that you'd have to cock
your head and squint

to see the rule.
And you can't even then

insist.
