   Nice – here is mine (since I promised not to blog about this anymore ;-)):

   It doesn’t matter
   System or metasystem
   It is what it is.

   Too much argument
   Energy deflected by

   There once was a girl from Nantucket
   Who kept her systems in bucket
   So you’ll never know
   Which way it will go
   Is it meta or system? ah phuckit

    This flower touches that one

    Metasystems have their place:
    A pondful of drops…
