I. The Assistant to the Associate Vice Provost of the Department of
Redundancy Department Proposes the Explanation while Explaining the
Proposal
What we have completed is a plan to study a plan to study the plan to
plan the plan,
he began.
We offer you opportunity to pace a planet
tell us size and contour
shape and roundness--
is it egg, pear, or soccer ball,
has it mountains, valleys, rifts, oceans?
Of the flora and fauna
I can tell you
the bio-macho reverberating, infra-radiating
time space energy wavelength sieving
refocus spectral reconstitution analysis techniques
have affirmed
on this planet
in the farthest trans-quasar reaches of the universe
that everything
everything everything
within the scope of our analysis
is compatible with familiar life-forms
(in other words)
you will be able to breate the air, eat
the berries, drink the water, chomp the nuts,
slurp the honey, smell the flowers---BUT
despite the confirmation in the analysis
of the existence of larger forms
the data are not sufficient to ascertain
whether such forms are the infra-reflection of
monsters, human
persons, a mountain, a giant redwood or
a moose, cow or some oversized
biological, geological or zoological form
unkinown thus far to our civilization and
scientific culture.
Will ya take it on?
