If the point has shifted there’s a place now free 

for scrutiny; it mayn’t be an easy task, once its 

accepted as the way things were, like the past, 

then we’re into new territory - maybe pioneers, 

and that asks for deference we’ve yet to learn - 

unless we’ve been there before; - & that is the

anomaly, turning on its pivot expresses views 

newcomers see as novelty, whereas we espy 

Rotational contingencies true to our belief; the 

way it translates belies a glossary of terms we 

see as the secure vocabulary so its better you 

express it our way or face dubious incredulity; 

but the point’s shifted you cry, look, there’s an 

empty space there behind your eyes, okay!
