A book cover is a brick wall
We enclose the world just in case,
read it backward so everything is
clear
and test read (forward) so it
seems
to logically progress in reverse
order
Making better sense read backward
a book (supposition by supposition)
may be foundation for previous
claims before its start-proposition
Two brick walls form a frame
for all perambulations in-between
as well as complementary thoughts
and internal silent precedents
Circular nature recalls other thoughts
which follow brick by brick formulae
and designs we find in the facade
as we consider masonry as works
of art
A most attractive approach is design
the brick-wall version of honest
artistry
immediately appealing philosophy
in the form of time and the substance
of a wall
The bite-size-chunk-nature of red
brick
the terseness of moonlight inter-divides
shadows that are sleepwalker-friendly
opposite the thorniness of vines
up walls
Architecture may explain influence
while being debatable but I
hardly agree
its
attraction is aesthetic, and am amused
as I am
by a brick wall on a book cover
