Then I see that there is a lot of rhyme, but this quantity of rhyme inevitably and necessarily sets up the expectation/obligation of a sufficient rhythmic unity - that is not subsequently delivered as it is. One expects a rhythmic unity - but is then disappointed by the fact that it is not present.

Conscription to succeed
do not rest while
others sleep
count dollars instead of dreams
become while
bringing being
hoard words
the bread of fantasy
trap the realm
of possibility
dry sweat the tear’s out-bleed
caravan on valley
and dusty seed
pretend the hour a second to need
launch
pull back an office beat
the heart of heart
never say please
string tied
invisible screams
100 percent in my sleeve
9 2 5, parasite be
7 same ∞’s
let me leave please.
I mean - were you speaking this aloud when you wrote it? It does not feel as if you were?
