Moment of Inertia







If I were not so casted I’d be in a real funk

Were I a smart crease – I’d not be in a rumpled drunk



Were I able to comprehend

The parallel axis theory

Then I might possibly understand

Why the moment of inertia is so eerie



I might also explain why we live in the rain

And yet, never complain about all the dry pain

Can a poet who can no longer rhyme

Be executed for a writing crime



Hey, you there in the back corner

Are you here to collect for the coroner

The covers of darkness drape

Knotted together like a bow tie across the nape



Tonight the morning waits fate

All the ghosts stayed late - for Bordeaux’s sate.
