Some words about this poem... It's written like an algebraic equation. The 2, 4, or 1 after each parenthesis indicates number of times. Then I abbreviated each expression with the letter H, A, and J. Yes...there's lots of repetition...and no question marks. I leave that to you, the reader. Try reading it aloud and put your own expression and question marks where ever you like. Have fun...

Nice poem! I love the rhythm you've got going! Almost puts you in a trance as you read it! :) Very creative and inventive...a unique contribution to the sometimes tired and recycled world of poetry!
