Banana-free Verse


What percentage of constructed
word-like symbol strings composed of
letters or some other unit– 
random brush-strokes for example–
have no meaning?  See, there must be
something like completion theory
which could shoot rejection slips and
no bananas to those million
monkeys pounding endlessly on
their typewriters... bet there’s not.

Woon linje cra, jowse drin wolay
slup mantsit swape kavol redat
ek murfal dij, rehoven klat
sep wontsat vrain lenocratay.

So in the meaning-universe
of any language one may question
if its words are stars or vacuum–
is its night-sky dark or bright?

And does it matter?  Jup kavite.
