With a Wire Sandwich the APG Declare that . . .

All poems impersonate something (take that play dough) not completely alienating, intensifying the jabber, repeating the react icon at the wet end of the poem machine, a copper, bronze or synthetic and temperamentally unconscious screen that receives the suspension of word, pulse or fiber from the head-box [henceforth this movement is the "refuge communique" where] I make it a point not to stress out about poetry (fuzzy love plane beyond all form) or its unintended effects such as the periodically folding and unfolding, collapsing into itself (clasping as cleaving) or expanding that puts negatives together [box] what kind is poetry, and therefore, what next question mark ergo redevelops them into a text for ordinary folk (a car that floats) juvenating the phonic fun (dire political) mining sememes for densepack image vibes (thought node potentia) because inventing america [against] is to prop up the tropes with real distance: a desert unstorming in the spaces where we read; the tropes become traps, divide, distract and clobber the globule memes with ah and sing that the transmeant theorists have peril & history has a text filled bursting like real timing outcomes for subcutaneous spread (unfolding,  collapsing into) stanza break occurs between interventions, [body poetic and another body locked in] and doesn't correspond to what the secretary of defense said on Wednesday (maybe of Fence) when in doubt, add prepositions for life doesn't occur as a series of nouns.
