Ciphertext Rag: One
by Gregory Severance
stagger across the universe
stay home from work
the worlds the people the consciousnesses
of hot water baths
chairs arranged in rows
chairs arranged in circle
chairs arranged in mandala
chin scratching
interactive switching
low data volume
stars and constellations detecting and recovering
exhaustive staggering
exteriority of homelessness
hidden objects revealing the others
spiraling through the universe
cotton towels hide hairy legs
sub-tropical images inverted
invaders of the flickering image of the usurers
of tri-dimensionality
silicon sand on the floor of the museum
arranged in mandala
arranged in circle
arranged in star eternal collision
key lime pie
sitting in folding chairs on the wooden porch
of the southern haunted house
of the capital city
of confusion and nausea
digging bare feet into the splintering planks
digging bare feet into the sand of the mandala
digging bare feet into
the sand of Panama City beach
quiet June rain on Saturday
afternoon in the clock towers squirrel
and pigeon scurry nothing is hidden
synthetically
explicit insistence of mammon
alphabetically
June 1994 |
