Why Do I Constantly Make Up New Words

I seem to be
the kind
of person
who is always
first
to check out a book
that has been
at the library
for ten years
but still remains
unplucked
from its space
amongst the limbered spines
that have a familiar calling.

That this is my fortune,
destiny, fate, or dharma
is of no consequential
value to me;
I'm simply unpacking
the stairwell
of cosmic distillations
that swarm
about me
as I reroute the carousal
of understanding
and intersect the vision
of my curiosity
with the distain
the universe has
for vacuous space,
a gloriously post-diculous
subterfuge
of irony and grace.
