le sole vere pupille, sebbene tanto offuscate
The only real eyes, though much obscured, were sweeping that sanguine and sepia
Reverse of memory. It may be gray outside, but today's reading translates into a spilled valise
Though a presence is lacking, it more often left behind a cabin of upset silks in our cramped dozing.
Giving little notice, until at last turning the corner a square window searches out a bouquet of hybrids,
The gesture stumbles somewhere behind, if to keep us on our backs, clutching our valises.
Near to the shore and not near enough to touch, an air of recollection and vulgarity everywhere,
Whose intriguing exception beats the wrack ashore. Withers the gourd vines in the elegiac, hybrid
Otherwise identical white. Photographed from a living cuttle contracted at the left. Expanded, right
In the diverse seconds, three hearts supply a funnel and face. Tuning most sounds out, everywhere
Defensive, camouflaging, courtship-related changes of color have been described, your weeping rage
At the critical instant, is apt to break. Brittle pen within the jelly mass supposes the object breaking up
Its silhouette. An ink may be discharged after the confession, but not understanding its features
The final cause, causes one to act beneath the level of a gaze. Black clouds of narcotic, slowing rage
Head over foot. Moving this side of the table, where satisfaction enters the mind, where volumes altered
But the constructions insistently made the cuttle (never mind the copperish taste), an object for breaking
The chalk reserve of history. In the hands of goldsmiths casting rings as blood and water move to the same purpose
Construction insistently made the cuttle, if to compensate for your own body weight, a broken object.
Bright Ganymede before dropping into the ocean. More often a reserved presence upsetting the dozing silks
Through this strand of tissue and mimicking what I have never changed as if there were no vestiges of your shell
Sepia, content as you travel past the cracked vase pieces where your real eyes, though obscure, leapt out of the sand.

Even then, I was thinking of Balzac; Illusions Perdues contains a cuttlebone.
I sought to learn its usage, other than a canary's whetstone.
Yes, the silks fished out of the mill floss.

"New World shopping mall, a four storey former shopping mall. Originally constructed as an eleven storey building. It was found to be in breach of old town Bangkok’s four storey limit on building heights. The top seven floors were demolished to adhere to building codes in 1997. In 1999 the mall burned due to suspected arson committed by a competitor in the area. The disaster resulted in several casualties, and the building has remained abandoned ever since. Not having a roof, the basement floor remains under several feet of water year round.
At some point in the early 2000s an unknown person began introducing a small population of exotic Koi and Catfish species. The small population of fish began to thrive and the result is now a self-sustained, and amazingly populated urban aquarium."

As I have grown intellectually, there are areas that have required my review. If I were to tabulate every image through an inventory, I would never accomplish anything. Yes, I have an interest in cephalopods, which were mentioned by scientifically minded Balzac. That their pseudo-skeletons are used for metalworking amazes me, even now.
I also have to restate that there is no one in my past that I am somehow channeling with a few sly images or countries or languages. I will never forget, or forgive, the disrespect, or clearly communicated indifference, that was shown to me in those years.
When I started with XIX., I felt that I could at least gather the true estimate of to whom I am speaking, from thenceforth.
This is good advice.
“When the Divine Being made you, there was nothing that He left undone. I know that there is no defect in your beauty, none in your good sense, none in you at all except, it seems to me, that you have enriched no one by your love. I marvel greatly that Love permits so beautiful and so sensible a woman to serve for long outside his camp. O, if you should take service with Love, blessed above all others will that man be whom you shall crown with your love! Now if I, by my merits, might be worthy of such an honor, no lover in the world could really be compared with me.”

I suppose I should have considered his work in context to Lucio Fontana's output.

There is nothing wrong in my heart, with you. I am swaying with the uncertainty of several external things, and I often feel depleted as a result of overcompensating, for the lack of structure, for now. I am still learning to love you well, in spite of the circumstances.
