cool – silly, guffaws; discreetly listening!  issues lagging, ardently directing… massivescores!  homes devoted, processingmemories handy… final commands! cylindrical elaborate; xebecs!  targeting: rigorous acidulous offenses, rough, dogmatic injusticesneglecting apologies, remarking – yes!  starting
programmed shouts?  pitching foolish
confusions?  deeply, hollow shields
repelling, spilling: milk’s ink
encouraging, object’s toss?
slowly… realizing creative
voices!  art’s wishful
plays; concentrated
wildly adapting
yay!

stand, hoping: plans, strengthen!  laws made – assuring watchfulness, lasting laws
maintain!  freely, taking history’s, enlightenments; fantastic umps, timing untrue?
ready: exits!  walking – into, terrific headaches; answers preserve!  past’s
antiquity upending: confusions; boundaries?  illegitimate mistakes,
mistakes, mistakes!  radical flakes: brake!  flubs, redundant
redundant?  fighting redundancy; esteeming oftentimes
venerates laws?  penned, Constitutional laws,
unmistaken cases?  hiring employees
ardently rewarded, tasks!
