For Ella

It's bizarre to be so out of fashion!

wordless, grammarless, a waiting form
forming: to be bizarre is so out of fashion.

You will know men (women) weaving language
clothes to warm and hide. But wait: is
out of fashion to be so bizarre?

One trusts exotic syntax, another tries
the accidence of cloth, while yet another
conjugated wives. You will know them all out
of fashion to be bizarre is so.

And when you meet them, think:
who am you, you, you? Out of fashion
is to be bizarre and that most out of fashion
is to be newborn.
