The Other Thereness: The Outside In

Mystical nostalgia, criteria evaluated for corporal
Commemoration--quotidian collectives situate
Epochal and apocryphal atmospheres: new norms,
Strata not dislodged from lore; metaphorical themes
That extend the mystique assessment, effort afforded.

The backdrop, the level up--do the ways substantiate
A fashion and function franchise for a resilient existence,
A presence of perpetuity, or do the means tender a
Partiality for pedagogical preservation: scripture strictures;
The classified oblique.
