Intrinsic. What's intrinsic about a poem?

Construction of word(s). Designated space. Where windows will (be) and the unarticulated parentheses.



What follows next are a few examples of the intrinsic in food. Carrots: sweetness. Chili : fire. Jicama: crunch. All of the above might (also) be intrinsic in a poem (noun as well as attribute).

    in a small garden by the sea
    could dwell the world, the universe,
    the absolute edge of everything matter,
    form, or air

    and on the olive, a drop of oil
