The aardvark Is a small animal Which lives on the first page of the dictionary, Where there is nothing to eat. The aardvark Is a solo act. Its immigrant components Mark it as a stranger, As one of one, alien to the many. The abbot Acknowledges its existence, But will not socialize. The aardvark Is marooned in the abacus age: On the aardvark's planet There are no computers. It knows nothing of Cows, crossbows, candyfloss Or the sherbet at the end of the rainbow. The ballot box Is a letter out of reach. The mosaic Of the aardvark's planet Has the logic of broken glass. Amidst the smashed fragments Of an improvised reality It insists, At least, On its own survival. The aardvark Lives in two dimensions But dreams in ten, Imagining Transalphabetic realms Where aard is numinous And where the aardvark has wings. |
