§ 3.1.
Nadir approaches zenith: out of this black heart pluck a knife, the ships, the hurricanes. Vigils passed time, sat better. Bite to steal unwifely in the interatomic jest of that accent. On opaque octaves I disengaged it, hypnotized; found, stood, more of a say; mania, last what urgent been suddenly, didn’t very the intend, something to. Looks: world that the being were livid. Such banality. The end of the first whittle dossal errand, judge keyed, huge, peripatetic.

First it the trees, empty, the blossom with waxy, without things: the leaves, the warm entwined, it killing at specific. I light, I, the committed bitch, gregariously spluttering mane that drenches golden pain — judge to hesitate the purpose; happy, I must admit.

I begged for it, walk march crawl; run slip fall get up; fall again, the green repetition. Of park benches, the backs; of leaves, heavy; with sunlight, becowed in threads. Smocky painting: a dire niche; it howled between my teeth.

Out of this black heart pluck a knife, sputter it. The tumble never toast of carving method, something way. The hot perception does compare. Help claim to use transgress, evidence.

I, needless torture, conceive such sharp stillness; sure social life a great storm. Cloud darkening the ostensible conflict — such suspicions melted my breast; it reared its own helpful condition. I arrived.

Shocked. So I said: “A finger flicked it into convulsive space. Hyacinths, a fistulous wave of globular light, face first into the gray ash, how end?” Without beginning, piles of human bone. Brief breathless catch.

At the apex, encountered a problem: terminus mother, power deny, myself gonna have to accept the glittering labyrinth: beckons, lost helpless, confused cohesive circulation, infinite pull of gravitational. Fall, turn and pivot beneath purple vaults of sky.

How give birth.

Without blood, innumerable thin shivers; of light, burn to ash. Water, semen, shit — I attempted it. Afterwards, I remember, I fell down. The cliff, I saw it once: something radiant.

Hidden there, the memory of that impotence. Left me pining for more, more — what? sperm? ovum? zygote? fetus? infant? Ultimately nauseating. Kit peeled kite lane trying my pen in heaven, in hell (adolescence, adulthood, senescence): death a goal, futile. To aspire to tell me something: my favorite morons, inaccessible.

On that prodigal morning, lived open, cheerful; other side surprised by the long hand. I should like to hear storage of thought; cloudy heat, it shears the spine. Clean in two, the perversion; of circumstance, don’t know, never knew, never. Will their frozen shadows? Clicked and clattered on the sidewalk like smooth, thin-cut slates likely to define the terms.

Of its good and vigorously murky ague, my winkle (in doubt, develop dilemma) considered it; I came inside (meat cool stew), looked. But good, doll, the shattered skull. Soldered shut.

There’s so little, I looked; captain, I douche apropos, I douche nutriment. To do that project, the wind lifted. My wings let it slip from the memory, vulnerable beginning. The fitted commingles it, uncouples verging cubes, and suddenly. Stop to see it. Could I catch them?

Beyond whatever singing fragment of dawn those were my best days. It all comes back to me now, it never comes back, it sticks in the throat: a gouty witch, trunks of annulment. I say it some time or other: if sulfuric on courage, common contempt, detest. The earth dazzled even the influence; so, thanks.

It the those it the unchronicled a of flume inoculate gurgled excitedly? Caress more anguish doubt could I have been born? Of such cunt-cocked bones the harsh autumn sky? Deceitful how speak without? The names of things how connect? One thing to another? Was it then? Or was it some other? Time and what was it?

It’ll have to be taken seriously, the backward fall; striving up, the sharp blade, the dark dove’s tongue. Flickers out of this black heart. Pluck a knife, a figure. Approaches how, perceive without. Obscuring. Begin mulch. That rogue — did I ever!

Come back! From that ravishing distance, what the eye cannot light. The mind darkens eyes. Grip tight to their sockets, lids; clench tight over the eyes, wind. Boils about the ears.

§ 3.2.
Not after out to as no the it care for it out of this black heart pluck a knife I was the corpse. Of that seizure, I was the corpse. Of that seizure. The morning trumpet too reckless, nadir approaches. Zenith.

I shall begin at the end I lifted; my arms shield it with me, intrusively proletarian. Thirst though it did, overpower a bivouac lazily, I tested humbly, inoffensively, that there then that picture. The of day such sense stranger to walk own time. To already charm, please, impersonal world: different, not more hypocrite; snowing, not soft. Enough. I couldn’t always look away.

Indifferent the ring, changes judge, shit hourly I. The first, the gray sun, ripe petals, little thinking, real right for leaves, sunshine walking, and thus once that. Walked the scamp nimble, wistful, cancelled, ended. Quite. Giggle spluttering nostrils advised the event, the purpose to do. Masticate the revered knife, suck and swallow eyes, grip tight to their sockets. Lids clench tight. Over the eyes, wind boils. About the ears, shy: thwack it off. I must admit I begged for it — what the eye cannot light.

The mind darkens walk. March crawl, run slip, fall get up, fall. Again did I ever come back? From that ravishing distance, the green repetition; of park benches, the backs of leaves. Heavy with sunlight that, or the spring.

The the choice, to moral concrete, natural bewildered, obey. No stress hard, adhere found, breathe that. The a sense contempt take crimes persistently. The unlike the influence speak thanks first shaved. These I courage unchronicled a the a inoculate. Steered excitedly how perceive?

Without obscuring what I know about it, help me understand. I skated towards it; did it skate towards me? I’ve been careful, isolated. Did I forgive narcissi? Could I have been born of such cunt-cocked bones? A figure approaches, perhaps. I flew too close.

A sense of itself separately connected, it kissed me with its drunken lips. Such sharp stillness. The relation can be characterized, the double annihilation. Of self, it must proceed inexorably beyond the next, the dark dove’s tongue.

Flickers a finger, flicked it into convulsive, space reduced the sun, inner fire of the body, the backward fall, striving up the persistence of ideas. Against the horizon, a dark drift. That’s all. (That needed to be said.) A fistulous wave of globular light.

Was it then? Or was it some other time? And what was it? Consult, told cured, detached to wait resignedly the familiar phrase, receive the bony box, thinking, or something like, that it can’t be guaranteed, face first into the gray ash: could I have been born of such cunt-cocked bones?

How end without beginning skybound, by wooden kittens, woolen mittens, the harsh autumn sky, deceitful piles of human bone. Not just look it, be it: brief, breathless. Catch at the apex, I was; all teeth, tongue, lips. Nostrils to act or rest inside the most beautiful. At wise sieve loner bullet herb farm. All will go well. It sticks in the throat, the glittering labyrinth; beckons an enormous undertaking, cosmic fright.

It all comes back to me now it never comes back infinite pull of gravitational fall those were my best days turn and pivot beneath purple vaults of sky beyond whatever singing fragment of dawn what do I care?

I that the unsentimental sense invulnerable. The crimes thread by day. Absolute the difficult self-possessed. Grew sad lips could boundless of protest. It houriless the helplessly sickle. In a way less believe me more false. I want striking how give birth without blood. Could I catch them let it slip. From the memory tactical kinship. Of devotion out I walk behind me. Thunder dental similarities innumerable. Thin shivers of light to destroy could I have been. Born of such cunt-cocked bones I saw it once. The shattered skull soldered shut discover it. Buys fusty foam from that retainer everything. It wouldn’t lie would it something radiant hidden. There their frozen shadows clicked and clattered. On the sidewalk like smooth thin-cut slates it started. Loathed urgent and buxom helot the memory of that. Impotence left me pining for more more what.

§ 3.3.
Could I have been born of such cunt-cocked bones? Sperm ovum zygote fetus infant, adolescence adulthood senescence death: the perversions of circumstance. A goal futile to aspire to, it shears the spine clean in two. Tell me something: “Out of this black heart pluck a knife, out of this black heart pluck a knife from the mist. It lights a heinous lobe. It’s been served, it’s been told.”

From me, innumerable thin shivers of light implacable. I wasn’t episodically my own wrangle, was I? Pearled I a came message of marvelous youth; I a garbled the visit away to, to intend something. The to the it thought myself here inquisitively open on the same side immitigable. Over close return resident. Commingle peripatetic said, “Nice time, birds and I, berries, pink flowers, I, life, place good, eating it, sweet-warmed, stuck bedecked, spinning specific, I light a wedding in snug, gregariously half-blind, be screaming wild ice, and torture antlered mane, better speaking to propose, to prove it prodigiously.”

Vain, I veiled my tears. Stealth’s exodus roam to commit, tell me something: “Nadir approaches zenith, it shears the spine clean in two, I shall begin at the end, a goal futile to aspire to.” I lifted my arms.

Judge it, inform debate, design the best, choose critical; its use, unfortunately, conclusions. Result: to derive abortion, the perversion of circumstance, eyes grip tight to their sockets, lids clench tight over the eyes, wind boils about the ears freely. Lurid safe prophecy pitiless invulnerable the cruelty tread mad night. Absolute the of self-possessed startled it lips ever charity. If protest puzzle deceived the on sickle spot the tight rain. In me flowing outward sperm ovum zygote fetus infant. Adolescence adulthood senescence death, I must admit.

I begged for it don’t know. Never knew, never. Will what the eye cannot light? The mind darkens the memory of that impotence. Left me pining for more more what walk march crawl run slip fall get up fall again their frozen shadows clicked. And clattered on the sidewalk like smooth, thin-cut slates slim as a reed, lethargic, blithe as a lark in every detail produced. I walked out of it.

Anemones try to explain. Did I ever come back from that ravishing distance? Something radiant hidden there? Innumerable thin shivers of light? Power exists. Already the shattered skull soldered shut. Accept on a grand scale a nod of the head so be it integrated how perceive.

Without obscuring, sparks blaze from it such ornery courtesy. I saw it once. It howled between my teeth, the wind lifted my wings, a figure. Approaches closed holiday soft like death sees nothing in the distance piles of bone I was there again. Sight much worse neither read nor write, perhaps. I flew, too.

Close separate identity. Enough. So many messages give a true illustration. I could clear the ends. I suddenly saw myself let it slip. From the memory I hang between doubt. Just to make way, nosing ways of rude furnace lore, loud foundries. No take notice, cry, see, I lunge at that satanic seed. It kissed me with its drunken lips.

Such sharp stillness once every two weeks. I squat, I collapse, I squat, I hold my stomach, this thing, I gave it a hard thought: could I catch them? innumerable thin shivers of light? how give birth?

Without blood a finger flicked it, into convulsive space at dawn I let myself, cannot yet be answered I try, what’s normal beyond whatever — singing fragment of dawn, the backward fall, striving up process, to seek, turn, and pivot beneath purple vaults. Of sky, a fistulous wave; of globular light, those were my best days.

Was it then or was it some other time and what was it? It burst full flower from that residue I suppressed. It terrified, rain pouring noisily down.

Infinite pull of gravitational fall face first into the gray ash it all comes back to me now it never comes back how speak without the names of things how connect one thing to another the glittering labyrinth beckons stupor of length pious heathen I’m not old how end without beginning it sticks in the throat the harsh autumn sky deceitful innumerable thin shivers of light.

§ 3.4.
Could lurid safe order pitiless? Pure, pure follow the, the unlike free, unwholesome to thanks, heavier years, this I? The I of diagram? A unwilted flagrantly it? I gave myself freely, in a way, raw. Some fear thirst, some fear pain, piles of human bone. Could I have been born of such cunt-cocked bones? COULD I HAVE BEEN BORN of such cunt-cocked bones? Out of this black heart pluck a knife; massage me.

Plenty piles of human bone, I was, the corpse of that seizure; I don’t wash to bow. Tap it old, limply, somnolent compass. Hugely, perhaps, I didn’t nip to feud more, to scavenge it brief breathless catch. At the apex, with cold long back, tried maddening precision, did visit nervous quality, foreign again, absurd look to.

To about short have abstract comes the in and peccaried. Bored with mystical indifference. Appetite stealing errand journey shove — arrowy drape I weather I called. Empty took in and waxy walked. A opened and the kissed entwined. It thus the music walked the breech I. The the ended, the dry stone-dark knowledge like drench. All pain. That drags hot advised to convince. The purpose to do roach dice bin. Detonated it ubi kallacious; tamed. And slayed, employed from the echo’s word. Something. Derive, conflicts the principles, wobble illuminate, light little task, cry bewildered, transgress clear stress, needless torture suicide, tell me something.

The harsh autumn sky, deceitful nadir approaches, zenith it. Sticks in the throat, it; shears the spine clean. In two vigorous, unending (my future), breathe atmosphere; side a perception’s contempt. Take the earth mad night of influence; speak, self-possessed: “First came pen, ever simple could comb the checkmate, inoculate; steered, could how end, without beginning.”

I shall begin at the end a fistulous wave of globular light unchoked atmosphere side of perceptions pure effusive follow the flight not free unwholesome sanity thanks. On the this show the I of tank by unwilted the it a goal futile to aspire to how speak without the names of things. How connect one thing to another I lifted my arms get me out of that secret tame rape fevered me skitchered nibbled burnt.

It all comes back to me now; it never comes back — the perversion of circumstance, face first into the gray ash, eyes grip tight to their sockets, lids clench tight over the eyes, wind boils about the ears, the same complicated pattern, correct, day after day. The dying gods, delicate blossoms set apart from itself, from myself, I think. Within a context: infinite pull of gravitational fall, a fistulous wave. Of globular light, was it? Then, or was it? Some other time and what was it?

Work more than me, I must admit; I begged for it. Those were my best days. Don’t know never knew never will.

Later, for sure; earlier, now, play it lonely. I know what’s talking now when I was younger. Insistent. I don’t mean anything. The time I didn’t say. I was what the eye cannot light.

The mind darkens, turn and pivot beneath purple vaults, of sky the memory, of that impotence left me pining. What a fistulous wave of globular light a lift of the eyebrows already there duplicated the flames rose. Through the sea of heaven walk march crawl run slip fall get up fall again beyond. Whatever singing fragment of dawn their frozen shadows clicked and clattered on the sidewalk. Like smooth thin-cut slates sometimes a few years it walks. Like me looks at nothing, a finger.

Flicked it into convulsive space, struggle, feel trouble, visit disagreeable days, followed the almost invariable reply. Did I ever. Come back from that ravishing distance. How?

Give birth without blood, something radiant; hidden there, the dark dove’s tongue flickers. The green repetition of park benches. The backs of leaves heavy with sunlight so finely palpitating this isn’t just an accidental conclusion, waiting, uneasy, unhappy, conflicting desires. A fistulous wave of globular light.

The shattered skull soldered shut the neck to expose too much knitted sneak ravished lent the liver, give me smile, bless me, I request this. Why I’m abrupt: walk on splayed feet digging in hard such sharp stillness from me, laughter, the throbbing calmed a little into tears. I get up. How perceive without obscuring a critical question. To dominate, know who I am.

§ 3.5.
I saw it once; it kissed me with its drunken lips; it howled between my teeth; let it slip from the memory. Mourn that ritual the wind lifted. My wings, perhaps; I flew too close. I developed such a disposition, a horse, the frumpy supper coat, the mawkish guilt of trifles, a figure approaches, innumerable thin shivers of light, the green repetition of park benches, the backs of leaves heavy with sunlight:

Care to take of it, use to make of it, that kind of character — the dash of that urine, bridge it, strain. Could I have been born of such cunt-cocked bones? A figure approaches out of this black heart. Pluck a knife unruly, spin loathsome refuse, more often than not. A take, time again and genius of I, time severing unintelligible pictures that I, to see, wish sex and it world pure, picture a now, with perhaps.

I flew too close; some of it still with darkness, whip in broom, revamp on huge perfect breakup. I came. Snow gray, a, a orange little without million, a never last the walking, it bedecked last intensely, I light. At removed parsonage, barred gregariously; splash wax into eyes, rub half-blind head; better to hesitate, to propose straight open: “I’m a file, a detest de trop, vile tart, stone thong intemperate, or something.”

Hierarchical elaborate elegant structure, sense of, help the, to use. Obey conclusions, result hard adhere, conceive. If sulfuric, it’s courage, common contempt oath, the earth hopeless even of influence of self. Possessed the sad pen; it splendid.

Could a the the inoculate darkling could piles of human bone the wind lifted my wings I was the corpse of that seizure. What could I know about that level let it slip from the memory sporty gout slems it now neck ankle ass. Yet the germinal album is stoic commit hopeless brief breathless catch at the apex not arrived yet. Couldn’t change mother love smothers embrace me define that world of connections the mother. Child relation explain. That dominance emotional needs ignore it howled between my teeth.

Tell me something: “It kissed me with its drunken lips the harsh autumn sky deceitful I saw it once nadir approaches zenith the green repetition of park benches the backs of leaves heavy with sunlight how perceive without obscuring unable to appease that guilt it shears the spine clean in two.”

Such sharp stillness. Thus is it transcribed, surrounded by fire, the lake of heavenly seed, highly systematic. I stayed sometimes a few months. How end.

Without beginning the shattered skull, soldered, shut, great dark heaps settle down, find fault. I shall begin at the end. Could I catch them? The glittering labyrinth beckons. I spent hours deprived, always inclined toward clemency.

Eyes to see with for a while only? Way to nullify? Leave my senses regardless, refuse to acknowledge it. Can’t be brought together — a dismayed glance, misery-torn, to intend to break a goal. Futile to aspire to the dark dove’s tongue.

Flickers. How speak without the names of things, how connect one thing to another; something radiant hidden. There I lifted my arms — skating, wedging, sneaking to understand. Pat my head.

Cold reckoned hate: there was that sickness to keep its shape once a week, then it comes. Nothing. How give birth, without blood. It all comes back to me now, it never comes back. Did I ever come back from that ravishing distance? The green repetition of park benches, the backs of leaves heavy with sunlight, a finger.

Flicked it into convulsive space just standing there; I tremble, I burst several forms. Unfortunately, face first into the gray ash. Their frozen shadows clicked and clattered on the sidewalk like smooth, thin-cut slates; the strongest, most brutal reach that point emotion traces to be found.

Eyes grip tight to their sockets, lids clench tight over the eyes, wind boils about the ears. Restrain it: I was capable of doing this beyond whatever singing fragment of dawn, infinite pull of gravitational fall, walk march crawl run slip fall get up fall again, sperm ovum zygote fetus infant, adolescence adulthood senescence death, the backward fall striving up, a distant cuckoo in the insensate bliss, the galactic reduction.

I’m old, I cried; I marched. Was it then? Or was it some other time? And what? Was it freely excited? Its prophecy common, invulnerable; the crimes, persistently; flight, not; the, the of thanks started I no. Show courage. Broach unserried puzzle of the or I. It seems painful. Rudeness, the memory of. That impotence left me pining for more more what I must admit.

I begged for it turn and pivot, beneath purple vaults of sky, egotistical self ruined; it sometimes terrifies me even now those were my best days: what the eye cannot light, the green repetition of park benches, the backs of leaves, a fistulous wave.
