A Poem By R. L. Swihart

________________________________________________________________________________________________

A Sequence of I's Contrives to Describe a Locus

R L Swihart
The Last Man
Cover Art by K. Swihart 



I thought you were Euclidean 
so I put you in a box

I built the box of linden 
and lined it with straw

I patterned the lid 
with a rosette of holes

I painted the outside gold

  3. Parkour, lemma, learning terms unknown before
