Little-Known Facts
April 10, 2020
It is a little-known fact that
lines from a tv show
can be so strongly imprinted
on the human memory that
they will outlast even the
sturdiest of plastic bags.
It is a little-known fact that
the sturdiest of plastic bags
contain atoms that once
swirled and bounced about
in the body of Democritus,
inventor of the atom.
It is a little-known fact that,
Democritus cobbled together
the first atom from a combination
of stone, spit, and sophistry.
Prior to that, all matter consisted
of guesswork and heroic couplets.
It is a little-known fact that
guesswork and heroic couplets
laid the foundation of all history,
from times unimaginable
to the end of plastic bags, and
all the lines from tv shows between.
