Archon's Atrophy.Sonnet 39

 The Anarchy of the Absolute Adverb

With no Redactor to command the pace,The verbs run riot through the emerald fields,And adjectives, in frantic, fractal grace,Refuse to stay behind their noun-thick shields.The sun is "loudly" gold, the grass is "fast,"The mountains "sorrowfully" touch the moon,As every shadow that the stars have cast,Is haunted by a wild and wordy tune.A chaos of description fills the air,Where nothing stays a single thing for long,A kaleidoscopic, constant, bright despair,Within the fabric of the cosmic song.The people struggle in this shifting sea,To find the shore of firm reality.
