From The Land Of Immobilia

________________________________________________________________________________________________

The King and Queen

of Immobilia

sat on their throne

and did not move

unless nature called

or their stomach grumbled

or

—of course—

the cats needed

to be fed

They traveled the world

—on-line or off-subject—

but in reality

they went nowhere

 

But not always

 

In pursuit of their 

professions

(art + math)

they circumnavigated

the earth

[in equivalence]

 with or without rhyme

Immobility

was  their chosen facade

and could suck up sympathy

from a salamander

or sarcasm from the gutter
