“Apophasis is a literary device—the artful disclosure of a forbidden topic. Apophis is an asteroid that will come within twenty thousand miles of Earth around April 13, 2029. Ra is the Egyptian god of the sun. An apotheosis is an ideal example of something. An apophysis is a protuberance of bone. An epopee is an epic poem. This poem, in terms of form, is an ‘arkquain.’”
