0. Partir ventre à terre


0. Partir ventre à terre

A woman, too, uses the cockcrow to mark time—The wind rose, or coxcomb;
Florence Nightingale subdivided each year by morality cause, for cholera’s plundered guts
That might impart its function to the seeded banana species in a ground roiling
With mold—Quadrants of the churning sonogram of a flood, for breakers of how much concrete
Can be poured of our words—Cut down, the hanged one spatters oakleaf brown, filemot
Labelled folios with immune droplets sewing tropical single diagonal lines stirring opposite

The crow—Rounding for January (2007), the seven years since I last suspected the parental opposite
Was true, yet then subject to exclusion—Oldest of seven children, one suffers the uprooting of Jacob Freud (1897) into a mirror's surmised dream work of combing
Down one’s hair—Seven generations of Macondo signifying the "7" a cordon plunged into the interior with jasmine flowering the walls, the submerged filemot
Of notebooks formed from infallible rules as Sanskrit—Essential particulars of each other into recesses as the guts
Consumption; expanded the twin halves of the butterfly; the heart’s bestraddle thymus, which sears on Charrière’s roiling
Judgment in the tiger’s cage—An immune rôle’s involution with age; to unlock others, let them hold in concrete

Recitals of Sur mon cou (1939, 1942) the seven quatrains Le Condamné à Mort - Edition Limitée concretized
By Étienne Daho and Jeanne Moreau (2010)—Seven-segment aspects of the pocket calculator, broadcast from the Moon, "The Eagle has landed..." (20 July 1969) opposite
Televised arrays, Rabbit Redux’s DAYS, pale slices between nights (1971)—A cathedral of magma roiling
Seven diatonic scales into cooled twin spires of Claremont-Ferrand; the Pilorge heirs in the vulcanized tire plant, or through starred window seats—Mother of pearl comb
Against a black mantilla; the anterior arriving, the fifth-month child of Isabel’s Monologue (1955), where undead filemots
Descend the cistern of the courtyard—Olmecs, the rubber people, proofed latex into rubber with Ipomoea alba, the moonflower, where a sinus thrust its sails into the guts

Of madrugada, the hours before sunrise, maturation—Shackled at Saint-Brieux, the bilious gut’s
Aspersion of loosened whitewash—The jackboot recoiling to indent a skull, traced up to its proper thigh, plants into blended concrete,
Into core of another pulled from the muster—Seven months after Apollo 8, seven quartzite slabs, the oldest drawings, were taken from the Apollo 11 Cave (July 24, 1969); from foxed filemots,
Flesh into which it is now caught, dictates the lesson—Then the largest, lithographed and screen-printed in six colors, Rauschenberg’s Sky Garden (1969); the ascendant opposites,
Compound palmettos; individually, straight razors, of then Cape Kennedy—Finding the Stone Moon roiling
Two-thirds of our lean muscle beneath the ebb tides of basaltic oceans resounding rose to tin blue by a cock’s

Crow, or the backfire from a plume deflector—When the stone broke into two pieces, the cock
Hits the percussion cap, in the rivaled chair of all flesh, where a trigger orbited drawing tremors out of radiopaque guts—
The trapeze of the back receives a dawn gilt, Booster from the series Booster and 7 Studies (1967) roiling
For the splendor of the sun, before talk of brunch—It is 1909 again, under the cover of  scented water, without a chance to exchange a word with the barber’s daughter, the concrete
Never drying at the lattice where she watches, before rain-flooded planters—Filemot
Of a colonial ruin converted prison, hospital;
Charrière’s no sooner in the shade of Colombia opposite

A syphilitic bridegroom inspecting his girl’s breasts; he is twice-deported to Cayenne (1935) opposite
The stars and mangrove branches—One Hundred Years of Solitude (1967) burned in this swamp for 17 years; the cock’s
Blood consecrates the foundation stone, four walls to survey the gaunt cart horse settled in mud foretelling Aureliano’s transcription of the vital filemot
Of seventeen assassinated on Ash Wednesday, the palm cauterized their brows—The guts
In question denied a second opportunity, from Sanskrit amalgamation, mercuric alloy, growing pellucid to become impenetrable, the roiling
Six lines after six lines, where Freud’s haploid cells, under the turnkey of time, produces the  psychology of union unreduced to a factor of composition, nor aggression and apathy—Concretions,

Of the hotel room of La Louisiane (1954), the couple opposite, where the wet canvas is overdue to pay the tab, under the ceiling’s painted concrete rosettes
There one firmly stood, never to be seated—Genet died with cancer filling his gorge in such a roiling scene, the ecstatic cock of a blond up to his heart (1986)—
After gutted Macondo, before the deracinated Bantu—From this filemot issues the twins, and Remedios, who will be reading this, first among gold fish speaking with our chain in its mouth—

I was quite ill all day from GI upset, and on the brink of throwing up in my mask. I generally have a strong gut, so in this season of aerosolized virus minding the chronic vents in a surgical mask (a paucity of respirators go to the higher ups) I am surprised that my intestines are roiling.

Fortunately, I did not get sick. I was never to duck out of work or school for vomiting. Purge, replete fluids, and avoid the causes. Eat yogurt.

Thank you, for reminding me. Exercise 91.

I have to stay at a higher spiritual level, to prevent myself from being entangled in other things.

"Certain sages go so far as to include repentance among the entities created before the world itself. The implication of this remarkable statement is that repentance is a universal, primordial phenomenon; in such a context it has two meanings. One is that it is embedded in the root structure of the world; the other, that before man was created, he was given the possibility of changing the course of his life. In this latter sense repentance is the highest expression of man's capacity to choose freely—it is a manifestation of the divine in man. Man can extricate himself from the binding web of life, from the chain of causality that otherwise compels him to follow a path of no return.

The Hebrew word for repentance, Teshuvah, has three different though related meanings. First, it denotes 'return,' a going back to God or to the Jewish faith. Second, it can mean 'turning about' or 'turning to,; adopting another orientation or direction in life. Third, Teshuvah signifies 'response.'

[...]

To use a metaphor from the world of botany: a change of climate, soil, or other physical conditions can induce marked alternations in the form and the functioning of a plant, and even the adoption of characteristics of other species and genera, but the unique paradigm of the prototype persists (126-7)."

Today, at the mixed operation farm (cattle, chicken, swine) I saw this: a free-choice supplement for cattle from Icelandic kelp for iodine.

https://www.midwesternbioag.com/baileysbit-salt/


The cattle were South Poll, which is a New World breed four-way crossed between Red Angus, Senepol, Hereford and Barzona. This breed is exclusively grass-fed with good heat and parasite tolerance. Senepol cattle are originally from Senegal, and imported to the Caribbean. Barzona descend from Caspian steppe to Iberian peninsula aurochs.

It was interesting to watch the steer protectively stand between us and the cows and calves. The steer are castrated to diminish the tang of testosterone in the end product.

Puddling in a well run-off I saw a Camberwell Beauty (Nymphalis antiopa):

The chickens were Rhode Island Red. The swine were pastured Berkshire. The organic appellation and longstanding relationships with restaurants and buyers ensured top prices and filled orders every time.

I do not have a farmer's mentality, yet the animals were well-treated at this place. The operators liked their animals and avoided talking about their pickup times.
