Simple expositions

Poetry is tested-

no line remains un-touched;

we smile at our fingered collections

of  verbs and inflections

and other such other stuff

of all the sorted conjunctions-

all the wrought out phrases-

the throw-away rhymes

and

those simple expositions

that torch our lighted way

through those caverned wordy

mines.
