Pulp Literature, Oct.2023
by KJ Hannah Greenberg

 

 

 

Etiolated

 

Pale, drawn out, lacking light, finally implies

That dinguses with their kin feel comfortable

In halls of ignorance.

 

Subtilized challenges pose famous, subordinate

Postures, don’t propound principled constancy,

Else attempt depravity.

 

Consider; oneiric communications often mitten

Designs related to vituperative relations whilst

Insipid thoughts putrefy.

 

See, social media’s become pervasive pressure.

As well, we usually flout attention for tracking

Accountability of hidden agendas.

Verse and Prose

 

Verse, as well as prose, are produced by robust human endeavor even

When collective standards prescribe predictable approaches to expression.

 

See, word assemblages kowtow to cultural prescriptions for verifying

Exchanges. Per common, contemporary, western standards, poetry appeals

To feelings whereas news “enlightens” (albeit ancient verse was mnemonic.)

 

Presently, lyrics are ordinarily intended as exclusive pronouncements.

However, nonfiction’s become inclusive. Language’s stylization induces,

Correlates shared moral proof; structural distinctions impact inventiveness.

Translating Semantics into Maths

 

Levels of abstraction seem capable of addressing disparate topics

Through parallel perspectives, as illustrated by the literature of war,

Emancipation, also marriage.

 

Social stepwells, refresh only when electronic disquisitions silence political

Opposition. No sarpanch’s free from vumming constituent fealty that’s propped

By broadcasting’s alacrity, effulgence.

 

Modern philological classes’ roles remain differentiated from electronic media’s.

Whether adverts for dhabas, or veils for deep state activities, convergent channels

Encourage contiguity, bias, plus the humean.

 

Accordingly, speciously, indehiscent fruit whose mesocarps surround their pyrenae,

Constitute measures of expression that somewhat effortlessly translate into numerical

Reckonings; ratings have exponentially grown in worth!
