Analysis of Intellectual Burps
Infinite variations slide across
imperceptible sensations, and wisps
capture insignificant conceptions,
to fashion with love, all those crazy shapes,
twisted silence, soft malleable sighs.
The day is chased along simplicity
as intellectual burps are released.
Truth whips lies while rippled moments gather
up the ego's fat ignorance, it pops,
like a button on a shirt, stained with grief.
