Fountain

There is no such thing as the abrupt
Doubleness is the first plural
The abrupt comes in many forms
of which doubleness is one overture
The world occurs as time enforces it
In return it recognizes time
Again the bottom predicts a top
Fresh sources resemble each other
Goods are exchanged throughout the day
