Threading the Labyrinth...until the configurations reveal their fates.



Built up of examples nobody is meant to hear--the soot sticks on the ink stone
Bubbled impermanence doling out comparisons of so many beautiful trails since
The snowmelt of last winter with its murky philters. Seasons serve to explain 
Something where our shadow's miming no longer assisted us, the veritable sinks 
Of anonymity brought us instead. Together by chance, that is to say, through a clear
Blue outlet of the treatment pond. That decides the clot on paper as if wisdom


Imparted from a burn. The outcome depends on the state of your papers, wisdom's
Adage arriving comparatively late. I wonder if I ever got tired or does the grindstone
Tempt scribbling 
...

Anthony Lawrence (April 27, 1957) work belongs here; not as an imitation, but for the long, lyrical intensity.

I am not approaching it, yet.

I am looking for The Darkwood Aquarium (1993), which is a fantastic title.

Exercise 91.

Medication does not apply, yet I like the resilience of insects walking out of a face in a reflecting birdbath.

I was locked out of my residence this morning when the battery of the keyless entry lock powered down suddenly. I walked in shearling-lined slippers to the Stephenson house in drizzle with the pagan clown show parading on the main streets.

The door lock was fixed today with help of the others.
