Well Trained Sensing Devices
Her toggled frame
Rapier hot
A je ne sais quoi
Of a year ago
Possibly two
I do not know
Her grains said to me
Why not?
So grow me
Just like that
They said it
Not to offend
But to motivate
Beyond our obscurity
And the reasoning
Was barely good enough
To bring new creation in
And such a bleak landscape
We follow our desires
Our meant to be’s
Noses trained to sniff it out
Quite respectably
