Seedless Grape

The idea has always been
In conflict with itself. What,
Asks the idea, is it worth

To be a kind of a thing
That’s only abstraction?
The idea has some idea

What this might mean. The idea
Has been terribly fecund.
There are so many ideas

Now, and although some are removed,
They aren’t alive. None of them
Actually die. The idea

Finds this very disturbing.
Why can’t it be an orange?
Vivre l’orange. Substitute.
