Optimal Setting

I was not frightened
by the pine tree's
pinnacle, despite
the accelerating height
and circling scarves.

I did not demur
at the prospect
of some civil underwater
engineering project,
though I have no
relevant exoskeleton.

Who thunk it
over thrice, these
frenetic articulations
of an unparalleled
funkhouse?

Furlough
the preferable;
gobble preference;
else you'll find
at the apex
there's no bottom
to your madness.
