Ernest, this is a wonderful poem. Now my mind's doing flips applying to the last century. thanks for the read.

: Modern Poetry

: when language
: wearing its formal dress,
: well-spoken
: at its station in high society,
: disobeys the laws of exposition,
: Love may creep
: like a fiend
: into the camphor-scented rooms
: of finely-crafted sentences,
: strangle the sleeping baby
: and fill its bag
: with moon and stars.
