Autopoiesis CXCVI (“There’ / s a voice at / the bottom … …”)

There’ / s a voice at / the bottom … / … Darker e-

ven than me / mory could be so far out-

side with the outside unhinged / with joy / ex-

iled in a world — shine upon shine / sheen through

sheen “More than the white sand / darkened by the

tides” “You were born glowing / And when the green

bird / Landed on you / It left all its songs.”

9:05 the clouds dark and dirty, un-

suitable for viewing ... 8:59

i wake up, uncertain of where i am

Passages of labyrinth repeat; / the

crypt gives vellum thighs to the dead, neith-

er alone, I don't think, nor poor -- the same

who sends his anus out / to hunt and farts between his teeth --
