This is the theory that Jack built.


This is the flaw
that lay in the theory that Jack built.


This is the mummery
hiding the flaw
that lay in the theory that Jack built.


This is the summary
based on the mummery
hiding the flaw
that lay in the theory that Jack built.

This is the constant K
that saved the summary
based on the mummery
hiding the flaw
that lay in the theory that Jack built.


This is the erudite verbal haze
cloaking the constant K
that saved the summary
based on the mummery
hiding the flaw
that lay in the theory that Jack built.


This is the turn of a plausible phrase
that thickened the erudite verbal haze
cloaking the constant K
that saved the summary
based on the mummery
hiding the flaw
that lay in the theory that Jack built.


This is chaotic confusion and bluff
that hung on the turn of a plausible phrase
that thickened the erudite verbal haze
cloaking the constant K
that saved the summary
based on the mummery
hiding the flaw
that lay in the theory that Jack built.


This is the cybernetics and stuff
that calculates through the chaotic confusion and bluff
that hung on the turn of a plausible phrase
that thickened the erudite verbal haze
cloaking the constant K
that saved the summary
based on the mummery
hiding the flaw
that lay in the theory that Jack built.



This is the button to start the computer
to run the cybernetics and stuff
that calculates through the chaotic confusion and bluff
that hung on the turn of a plausible phrase
that thickened the erudite verbal haze
cloaking the constant K
that saved the summary
based on the mummery
hiding the flaw
that lay in the theory that Jack built.

This is the young grad student who couldn’t be cuter
who pushed the button and started the computer
and ran the cybernetics and stuff
and calculated through without the confusion 
exposing the bluff that hung on the turn of the plausible phrase
and, shredding  the erudite verbal haze
cloaking the constant K,
wrecked the summary
based on the mummery,
exposing the flaw.
And demolished the theory that Jack built.
