proof by exhaustion

There's those that share nicely 

Others who demand explanations 

Even when there is none to give 


An exhausting battle for an English 

Teacher or two - the discussion goes 

To the iambic - the dissection of a verse or two 


Thin it out - plump as it may be - it holds 

How does one explain inspiration - a moment 

Of creation that has no center - how does one 

Share exhaustion
