Coefficients, Coenzymes & Revelations

Choreographed at
each turn
Yet not matching the

of most uncommon regard
Neither yet heeded to nor

Like a thrashing gasp
about to go out of bounds
From the shackles of its

Across the channels
as it chafes the sun
Endeared to none
save the humble coroner's
summons.
