\nfor metathesis, set his mind on those endemic
\nconflations usually subordinated. Tyrannicide
\nor apotheosis? He couldn\u2019t decide. The endless
\ntautologies, and lack of training on modern
\nphonological principals thwarted new paradigms.
\nWhen he talked he was prone to excessive syllepsis.<\/p>\n
\nserpent tail morphological, major miracle, ontology
\nonto itself. No recidivism would dare try scare the
\nchimera, lest under duress it recoil into a zygote.<\/p>\n
\nAt times admonitions weighed heavily on him. Life
\nshrunk to a series of ekphrasises in periphrastic flux.
\nBut with morals intact he remained inscrutable.<\/p>\n
\nas he was always aiming to abrogate helots.
\nHe had no ambition to try to ameliorate every single
\nflibbertigibbet on the planet, every ninnyhammer
\nand dangling metonym. Like a moth chewing its way
\nout of a cocoon, he recused excessive indolence. Then
\nexercising prudent judgement, he let tiny lemmings
\nnavigate their odd philologies through sun\u2019s schism.<\/p>\n
