the dark sides the maddening flip
sides of things hyped were stuck fast
it seemed they were utterly incomprehensible irretrievable
irredeemable
but for the effort that anything worth
knowing
was worth the work to unearth it and shake it out in the fresh air in
the bright cleansing sunlight

wasnt it the skeleton key to slip
into the stubborn lock and twist open push heartily at its clasp and lid and creak

when subtlety and nuance are
defamed by inattention are defined as
slight or ineffectual outside the pale
of immediate necessity
when their fine pointsfiner
points
are utterly the Point
