Not appearing in The Irony Board (or elsewhere):


          Obsessions are magnified
          At one end of a tunnel;
          At the other the obsessed
          Are poured through a funnel.

              Doubling helix

          Releasing the growth valve,
          The tropic of cancer
          Is a turn for the worse.

          I thought I
          Was too big
          To fit in
          This corner;

          Fittingly,
          I just had
          A corner
          On big thoughts.

          Just before I’m
          Bored to tears I
          Fall to pieces:

          Cancel the mop
          And bring the broom.

          If what to believe
          You don’t know by now,
          It’s time to perceive
          You just don’t know how.
