This effulgently derivative elegy of couplets
Will use excerpts of the eminent like silhouettes

To embellish the motif of postmodernism.
But true discernment depends on the prism

Of the curious reader’s acumen and slant.
You may trumpet me a plundering fainéant,

But my succès d’estime de scandale is pacific
Toward the anxiety of influence. A hieroglyphic

Of sap-hazard. Wondering if artistry is maligned or divine,
I’d smuggle. No. Plagiarize this elegy. Still I’m rather too supine.
