Today is called Accession Day but we don’t know why a few 

unusual transactions await us beyond the baseline

 

Hoplitodromos to parkour in the blink of an Abrahamic eye

 

Electromagnetism beaches Arcadia on the Floribama Shore

 

The sun and the moon

 

undisputed gods

 

give their feud an honorable name


if the holiday is traced back not to its bogus futurities


but to its incident

 

The mythos is an instrument

 

The style guide is an instrument

 

The fiction is an instrument

 

The series bible is an instrument

 

The illusion of consensus is an instrument 

 

So memorize how the song is played and play it

 

or understand how one harmonic predicament leads to another

 

and act
