15. THE DUNCE--- DR.KGB
Interrogation mark
My certainty;
-Yours the full stop.
The time does suck me
To its black hole;
You do draw the sole
To you;
To the infinity!
My visual acuity,
My Space;
The surety;
But Yours!
The uncertainty;
The unimaginable
Ambiguity!
O the Limitless,
Me, the two-dimensional;
The image of yours;
But you!
The n-faceted unconditional;
The Enigma!
You, the eternal silence;
Me the eloquence;
Always the dunce;
The dependence!
To transcend you
My mind,
To verse you,
My tongue,
Rather to word,
But to be the paralyzed,
Yesterday,
Today,
And the day after!
