The ATD Rag

First you read it through for plot, [hopefully aglow and besot]
then you start your notes to jot [then you brain begins to rot]
Rub your eyes, it's getting late, and [you're getting Tantric, you're about to]
- explicate, explicate, explicate [try not to frustrate, please don't replicate, 
you're already nuts, why wait?]
(to the tune of "Vatican [Goettingen] Rag")

Wee-Ooo!
You mean to tell me there's a plot?!?!?
Well, first off, I really didn't bother with plot the first time 'round, just went looking for co-respondences to previous works. Used a color code, pretty much the same color code you find in Western Occultism. You know, red for blood, yellow for laughs, purple for the pope. . . .
But, yeah, should be no problem coming up with an AABA rag outta this shaggy dog's breakfast, this matheonomicom of a tome.
