Analysis of Verse City
Dennis Parker 1979
Another anniversary of nothing but adversity.
How many perverse verses converge here to be versus me?
And, exactly how much is the cost, per verse, for me?
Perverted how I fit into this universe, so perfectly.
So, I'll write another verse, a multiverse, complexity.
Please take these words away, become simplicity.
I've nothing more to learn inside this university.
