Rhyme by Lee Herrick
If all the words in the world rhyme, then
oranges taste like being alive, ascent rhymes
with stop here, please the grace of exiting rhymes
with the drunk pissing The scarf rhymes
with the cost no idea how
an hour moves this slow.
All we want is to not be watched. All the glitches hiss.
Medicate. Meditate. Korea, homeland. Go quietly
then resist how perfect you are, this time
