The Field Expedient Method (a poem)

 

  Seeking after perfection
with lines of poetry
perfectly formed

  Clearing a blockage
choking the trochee
wit a jolt upon a stump

  The field expedient method
truncates verse, rhyme and stanzas
budding, each leaf is a poem

Like artificial intelligence
in the stomach of creativity
issued wing forth perfect  gas clouds

  Duplicates without flaws are perfect
replicas of things for-themselves
being themselves as they were

War's aesthetic judgments
of battlefield's gestalt Napoleon thought perfect
while a Colonel regarded horror.
