How Can a Plumb Be Perfected?
Would an arrow straight and narrow
On second sight slightly bent
Still be sent
To a target overcrowded
If to only eliminate one
Would it miss and be gone
And collaborate no longer
With collaborators as well
As it fell?
How in a crowd could I blend in
And where would I go?
How can a plumb be perfected
And how would you know?
With the brightest star untraceable
In absentia would all righteous
Brothers know?
And if then there was a camera flash
And as instantly as it came it was gone
Did it go
With a cartoon-like explosion
Of a prop and a virtual
Demolition zone?
How in a crowd could I blend in
And wherе would I go?
How can a plumb be perfectеd
And how would you know?
If you penetrate the skies
Will I ever again see your eyes?
How can a plumb be for all time
Still completely perfect?
I sit around always thinking
About how?
