XVII. Parsemé [d’étoiles]


XVII. Parsemé [d’étoiles]

How beautiful you are—Just trying to decide whether detergent; astrosaponins,
The Crown-of-thorns works into a lather, is a comparable suppression of anteriority
Antifouling, biocompatible, fused four-ring, tetracyclic system of a steroid nucleus
Consecrated in the human sense of sex and quick breathing—Yet autonomous,
Through stippled lenses, unuttered syllables, L’Étoile de mer (1928) freights to a star,
A tetracycline fermenting predynastic beer—Here is a sphinx’s restitution, sphingosine—

Components of membranes, long-chain alcohols with nitrogen tacked on, sphingosines
Intermingle with their ends before foaming winding sheets of sand with astrosaponins—
Starfish alter sphingosine by adding a fatty acid and carbohydrate; present in its cache of star
Larvae—Overturning a card, its index of blood you are hiding, concentrating anteriority
In the ever-suspect moment—A not admitting of the wound (1188), until autonomous
Limbs confront the swell again; each step would be light enough admitting the nuclei

Of an eyespotCalcite facets of compound eyes focus sulfate cloud-condensation nuclei
Gesturing the algal bloom beneath—Both starfish, wreaths of algae, hold sphingosine’s
Phosphate moiety; energized by a kinase of the given name, and in part contain autonomous,
Insoluble fatty acid portion for suspending them in a shadowbox of waves—Astrosaponins
Cast a spell over the pink satin of an engulfing mouth, complex with a membrane starring
Red blood cells, like ruptures of its own complement, of circulated statements—Executing anteriority;

Hemolytic activity aside, even in her absence—Kiki’s teeth, echinoderm spines, show anteriority
Invading every subject, so that the film’s starfish is encased in glass, the impenetrable nucleus
That sent up magnetic fields as an alimentary tract, if to protect an obscure process—Starfish
Egg fertilization fluxes intercellular calcium ions, as in human blastocystsSphingosine’s
Long-chain amino alcohol and lipid, sphingomyelin, damps ionic flow down axons; astrosaponins
Can only spume—A runaway mind runs snakes down aisles of mental theaters, autonomous

Of the given example—Cuvier, who noted the bodies seeping astrosaponins, found autonomy
In the structural bridge of a skull leading to the marsupial fossil—He predicted the anteriority
Without chipping away to the pelves—It lacked a collapsible head for a birth canal—Astrosaponins
Came to him later as a comparative zoologist after a stint as a Normandy tutor—Engulfing nuclei,
Sea stars evert their guts into the pried mollusk shell; froth from the skin, if disturbed—Stars
Under glass bells, the verbal drift of molecules, do not nourish this repulsive force, sphingosine

With water permeability only one thousandth other membranes, ceramides are sphingosine
Amide-linked to fatty acids, and in the waxy, fragile starfish of a woman’s gloved hand of autonomous
Dora Maar, who stabbed the table between her spread fingers, and missed—A broken mirror stars
Where no look is exchanged anymore—Picasso nevertheless kept the gloves—Anteriority
Of that act, one his best souvenirs—In our discussion of sphingoid bases, astrosaponins
Implying something beyond, where membrane integrity is upheld, the casually explicit nuclei

Thwart the cohesion of ourselves—From sphingosine biosynthesis, or the nucleus of film
On your handheld device, the anteriority of these pointing hands know to fan out like a star
Fragmented, but autonomous, each thrilling and fatal flowering of astrosaponins in a rock pool.

I am trying to remember if astrosaponin is my coinage or a misuse of asterosaponins in echinoderms. I was taken with the steroid backbone saponins conserved in starfish and humans.

Starfish are in the news:

Solanine in nightshade, potatoes, tomatoes, is a saponin:
