beyond 20/20











a little verse on friend ranmal's exhibit,
a pair of spectacles made from bicycle wheels,
in a recent art show ...

out of focus
hocus spokus
circles frame
roundly blame
an ungreen vision

peddle hope
pedaloscope
foot up n down
greenin' the town
a cleaner vision

tis spectacular
a bike-ocular
gandhi glasses
moving masses
the inner vision

It is brilliant! There is the flawed state, the ideal state, and the last verse is about how to get there.
And all in lines of not more than two words each! Almost visionary!
Indeed Bike-ocular!

What I meant to and forgot to say - "Had this been exhibited with the exhibit, it would have won more plaudits."

Now I understand that it actually was....
