the two realms of sentience and self-extension
locomotion of tissue, cells: splits

a call for help, an announcement
a call for help, this library abyss

a swelling sense of territory
now turn yr rainy face towards

to repel attention
to create a living person from a dead one

an arrangement of whips, chains, clubs, and rods
god and the cannibal equally elusive

private and incommunicable
an assiduous practice of births

the swelling sense of causality
long before those who speak, language is waiting

*

a libertine suspends
eating or moving themselves

eating or moving themselves
reduced to the crushingly blank and uniform wall

and thus do we by indirections find direction
collapsing humanly

a geography of the eliminated
the host willfully abandons

nineteenth century exoticisms, the beauty of the dead
lungs, arteries, blood, brains, the mother

splintering atoms, a violence of antennae
dark hiding places in the body

a man says he is damned, others judge it madness
the making available of simultaneity
