Gertrudes of Devotion

Had Aristotle focused a little

more on Legos, or even Legolas,

Alexander wouldn’t have grown up to star

in Oliver Stone’s worst movie,

but it all depends on the definition

of isthmus, which is the name of

the icicle used in the perfect crime—

take notes, wait for winter, don’t get fat—

one neighbor smells like fart; the

other, basement.
