Daedalus and Hawking

Daedalus and Hawking -- imagine us here --
the afterbirths of galaxies, our mirror,
we reach the final sum and alert art
we beguile as though we were smarter

Yet, as we know, our troubles are wired
A homunculus and rattles of sabers
They surround us as you know, Stephen, worse
than what we don't do is what they aver 

Regiments of worms in the sepulchre
Stars betwixt two capitals and cognates
Connoitre and connote, bring me my chapel!
Marry my mind with the powerful lapel

When then the sun ensconced in tributes pelts
the plasma, the plenary, our down melts
