Analysis of A Hymn to the Hum
frame order rescue
talent in a box
smirk for swallow
now that is a bargain,
swap shop flea falls
down a followed pain
examining the pulse,
change in a hammer
frank for the jerk.
gutter former verite
accent by the sea
float snap reel
is that what bore saying,
tear hair wind calls
brunt as punch remains
quizzical jaw talk,
victim of idea
took for the ride.
