1.
Having seen what I would call Brownstones
even though, they are not,
they still should be called Brownstones,
since they are Brown
and made of stone.

2.
More recently we recounted,
together,
a story I told you in the past
and told you again
more recently

3.
Even more recently I recounted,
through emphatic comma splice,
an episode of
reconcentration
about aforementioned story
that was of course about
a before mentioned story.

4.
At the time of origination
the story was told soon after.
A bridge we said,
on what would perhaps be called
"a rafter"
were it not actually a trestle
painted in 12 spaces beneath
the rails
"B E A V E R F E V E R"

5.
Prunes.
Nobody told me
That dried plums are
Prunes,
Until after I had eaten
Ten dried plums
Which
Were actually Ten Prunes.
