Indefensible!/That jowly, trapezoidal grandfather,/snow capped like Mt. Rainier,/who cannot hear, has a dangerous totter/and worst, is sometimes comprehensive./Where has he written of the soul's emetic 1. causing vomiting. 2. an agent that causes vomiting. e·met·ic (  -m t/bringing up shards and bits that are poetic/from a final psychiatric session?/Where is angst angst 1 (ängkst)n. A feeling of anxiety or apprehension often accompanied by depression. angst 2 abbr. , ennui, or sexual repression?/As for pain, engine of the true poetic strain,/he confines it to the caboose,/the last car on the train./But the penultimate indictment of his crime/is that he insists on using rhyme.
