CHAOS/order

I was talking about this just-written acrostic poem to my poet friend Victoria this morning. The word unmoor, I said, might not just mean take the rope or ropes off. It might also refer to making a swamp into an oasis.

Vic liked that but thought my readers could use a footnote or annotation or they might not get it. I said Nah, my readers are very smart–many smarter than I. They’ll get it.

Cacophony diminuendo

Heuristic’ly-arranged decor

A sport, e.g. a foot that’s se’en-toed

Oasis crisis heretofore

Solved elegantly. Swamped? Unmoor
