If is everywhere; If means everything.


If allowed, end “if.”

Normal view, “zoom,” Tracks move.

 

If allowed, save “if.”

Validate against the schemes.

 

If false, ignore “if.”

Mixed contentment always shows.

 

Don’t promote there-of,

Thus said complex scripts and themes.

 

Incompatible,

You break, snap, wrapped o’er tables,

And in cell grids.

You split, don’t grow out of it,

Opening up, then

Flip a mirror you dented.

 

If before, group “if.”

You centered off the margins.

 

If. Undo "if." Please.
