Ode to a Pataphor

You are as sweet as petits fours

Melting in the mouth
What better way to say

What cannot be said than

To Taste the imagined chaos

You Serve up

Knight takes bishop

So much for horsing around

Now out of the horse's mouth

A song sweet as a lullaby

To lull away the boardum  of

Pawn spawn

--Jack, 1/6/10
