Autoplay

Once, 'polygamous' applied
to the many times wed
as well as
to the married to many at once.

Now it's just the latter.

The former, though it sounds computational,
maybe it is, vielleicht, es ist,
from now, for me
are 'sequentialist'.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM

vielleicht = German for 'maybe'.
Pronounced 'feel'+ eich as in Eichmann + t.
Without the comma after 'vielleicht' it would be 'vielleicht ist es'.

The former, though it sounds computational and amazes mind with just letter. Wise sharing is done here...10
