Dmitri's secret dissent in the parrot axis (impetrarc sonnet)

(to his loving wraith, Suliko ...)

whether (it) were (Shostakovich) in the mind

of the Leningrad metronome—the dead

resistant pulse of a city ... life-lined,

thin, hollow—(was) the subsistent onward /z/ed

of a living corpse propagandized into legend

.("... Baby, Zed's dead"—Pulp Fiction) end (war) to end

all (beat); the rat-walk; the invasion themed

(water or feet) or scurry—(for all) immanentizing of despair

a (-) semic shift—Stalin's Walk perhaps re-dreamed

by Pixar—[¿memed?] resistance en plein air

.....(not) .........his polysemics on display for all (to see)

—at home he pulses with the secrecy

they'll never even know (how hard)—their fall (or call)

he feels with music, pride and secret glee
