nice poem
I might consider shifting the accents in the first line to-
One must also say
Hear it? As opposed to opening DAH DAH dah, you open iambic, Dah da. Fits with the pace of the rest of the stanza.
"no change"? meaning doesn't change? a bit Reggie like "no woman, no cry" I don;'t think that works.
à la, not ala, for french.
i like the last line falling off like a limp. I like the poem. Not the title so much. In these types of poems, you can give the poem a crazy Dali like title too, something just crazy and fun. "The world through a hula hoop." etc.
