THE PNELUDUM

"How did WE get HERE", a blogger,
just gave me an idea via this excange on C&L....

"TPM - It's a fact, it doesn't matter:
Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at an Elingsh uinervtisy,
it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are,
the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht frist and lsat ltteer
is at the rghit pclae. The rset can be a toatl mses
and you can sitll raed it wouthit porbelm.
Tihs is bcuseae we do not raed ervey lteter
by it slef but the wrod as a wlohe.

THE PNELUDUM


The pneduulm must swnig
clavee thurogh the maet
slcie it to daylgiht
or deilte, if you plaese
Rip and cut and sanp
cavre all the lies out
tehir harneded flseh
tearnig suol
as it swgnis bcak

Gegore Bsuh

The tutrh is swinnigg bcak...?questions Any
The pendulum must swing
cleave through the meat
slice it to daylight
or delight, if you please
Rip and cut and snap
carve all the lies out
their hardened flesh
tearing soul
as it swings back
