- wall-eyed philosophe seeks love
(she laughs at both

(see at least this: ashamed
I appear to other )
................................nor is this all.
......................she is not in the café
.............in café are all fractures
attenuated in her shape
............................(she gulfs elsewhere)
she inhabits not at now.
..................nor she here.
................................nor this all.
...............................he know it
................in his askance when he comes
................to look ..with ..a/a...bifurcated .........(glass)
................instrument .he/he .calls...head
[in this moment we're hearing dreary he is here looking merely for dear love]
..............................nor is this all
......................of which she gulfs
this imprecision and
........several of these are put in the mouth
........(several of these are put in the mouth)
this imprecision is precisely
the gulfing she elsewhere

evidently supertuesday and not one solid pancake
to enliven a notification of aquifers in
the corner a capsized toilet brush holder leaks
faecal toxins bespeaking slovenliness and weak
ness of domestic intention week in week out so
to applaud failure O why such
that we have ever and roused suddenly
by fluttering no it won't dare say that
over the many dark islands the flags like lizards
ragged tissue of two hundred year old tortoises
but why not
we gather here hot hopping hipping hoo hoo at margins jump idiotic
crazed yes but not
foolish only seeking cooling
together under we throng submerged as sea-rats
rubbing up wrong ways
of current
(Darwin knows of…)
finched alive in fire and squeak

of it now folded with very fear doesn't above all
shrink unto ever the wastes that so sing
ringèd brinks at the short slight doorways of frost—O
we confess shy of masonry shaven to shortcoming
of seasons of lack and ill-lustre how, ink, eek
we have state in the blank seas' moods where
time and tide shear upon our every waking sheek
will shove like all animals a heart yet all it
vergeth all confunded all in late grass love of
beneath all thinks where all lies stopt sunlit
