That's the way it always goes down
"We'll do a simple Edge Job"
she says
"It'll be fun!"
she says
A piece of equipment
vital to the operation
becomes compromised
we'll have to find another way
to get under
clandestinely
but if the void we inadvertently leave
drowning in our wake
[thwarting edges adjacent
upon extraction of the execrable]
is nothing but transparent,
we'll clock it as a win.
