They looked it up
The fragrant places on the calendar
Scented with rosemary
Tinct with cinnamon
Charged with sage
Rank with fermentation
Or peppered with peppermint
As with sapphire amethyst ruby topaz or diamond
But also those arid stooks of wish
Wherein the factory line
Added BHT to the as-yet empty packaging
And online ordering seemed to correlate
With the lustrous unstocked shelves
Whose voices activated the middle air
Though you never meet them in person
And wonder do all dualities collapse
Smoking or non-smoking
Paper or plastic
Pass or fail
Silence or dialogue
Light or heavy
Sickness or health
Resistance or resignation
