Anyway, the old guy’s
psychological sorcery had no effect on Benn. It simply didn’t take. Benn
thought of himself as the weary, wayworn wanderer in the Poe poem. That was his
hang-up. Matilda wanted to be a tough broad in the brokerage world but also
comfortably married to a respected professor, living in style at the Roanoke, where
(a lady with fluent, current French) she could have something approaching a
salon even in a vulgar town like this. Lastly, she had made a cult
of deep sleep, and for that the Roanoke was the perfect setting.
Sartre's epigraph to
Simone de Beauvoir's Le Dieuxième Sexe (1949)—à moitié
victime, à moitié complice, comme tout le monde.
Benn: Hunched over your
knees in your faux animal pelts, for contact comfort, in the grey airport, you
looked up at me, and wept—Having flown non-stop from the stinking beach of
Ipanema, from Galeão to Fairbanks airports, now with its mounted grizzly in the
main terminal—Conscious of the anachronism, and the incongruity of the Layamons
of the West Midlands—You decomposed your alar shoulder blades as Oetzi, whose
stomach yields the last bites of blackthorn fruit and chamois bobbing head up
in the glacier (1991), the Beau lines of starvation, perhaps the wry lips that
birch pollen allergy reddened, found with dried birch polypore plaster tucked
in a roebuck quiver and complete with bear
Trimmed hat—Zinc
tolerance of Arabidopsis,
winter thale cress at the high altitudes of the dolomites, domino
Of the Tyrol Schistose
Alps, after Déodat de Dolomieu, freed by the negotiation of terms of Marengo
(15 June 1800)—After the Swiss photosynthesist who demonstrated gas
equivalences of carbon dioxide for oxygen, de Saussure (1804)—Shortening our
pace into eternity with market research bleeding pedantry into all
subjects—Eberhard’s Pink Pearl, the finished latex caoutchouc Dr. Priestley
calls rubber, and pink sourced from phlegrant Bagnoli–Fuorigrotta Plain that
stoppers leaded pencils and prototypes of the screenwriter’s Blackwing 602,
with half the
pressure, twice the speed—Provenance of the ash eraser commemorated by Vija
Celmins’s replica in balsa wood (1967), which could be from the same area as
the Aeneid pleases
you exceedingly—As Fannie Farmer’s christening of Baked Alaska (1896), which is
indebted to Thompson’s work on egg white’s flame resistance—Reading about the
hazards of Pseudomonas biofilms,
the risk of cross-contamination between colonoscopies, and assay for the
bacterial metabolite and potential phenazine
Dye detector ensuring
asepsis between cases—The Charles Addams model home taken down to the studs by
the thirty-something daughter, a fixture of the parental
home—Augmented virtual reality, the varied hats with on-demand saw cleaver and
one-handed blunderbuss of some vampiric Querelle or Lord Jim alter-ego dialed
into body types ranging from milquetoast to a waste of skin as the cast from Bloodborne (2015)—Regressing
to the console of youth and the unmentionable brother—Degrees of aforementioned
fire paper coating the hand in 60 seconds against the blood boss and lupine,
antlered wraith Vicar Amelia–There were the questionable low-serum B12 titers
unexplained by normal intrinsic factor; nevertheless, fed by urges for dry aged
ribeye, cooked saignant,
and like Dr. Johnson’s feeling of friendship comfortably filled with
roast beef; love for the enlightenment of champagne—
Matilda: C4 carbon
dioxide fixation produces rapid growth in the grasses, with exceptions being
the mauve-petalled and persistent North American invasive, Paulownia, the kiri of the office
of the Japanese prime minister, a tree whose timber’s high silica content
deforms the axe; looking across from me, I should add that it is felled prior
to marriage for an airtight trousseau chest—Regard the Rabbit style lever
corkscrew instead of those barbaric gestures of sabering the champagne
Neck—No concern for the
rarified cuvée of Heidsiek or Juglar enjoyed at table and among colleagues, and
the home life's cartoon collection of Addams’s Black Maria: A Family
Album (1960) captioned so each found himself Merrills's terminal lines
of that villanelle The
whole of love / Falls on the child awake and wearied of (1959)—Withdrawn

browsing for butterfly larva with a Perspex among the park's bear
Garlic and bluebells, now
that work and school are called off by disruptions of modern tastes for exotic
sweetmeats and animistic cures hocked from third-world stalls—Careless, the
centimeters of water seeping beneath the snowpack, these feminine peculiarities
valued, and are the mark of the unscrupulous contractor exaggerating the return
on investment of stone masonry veneers—This caste of female takes to volunteer
nursing on the Spadina field hospital during the Spanish flu, she takes George
P. Putnam (1931), who married into the Binney & Smith Easton empire of
slate pencils and black-walled tires, the blockbuster by proposing a Rubens 500
range (1903) for the Raphael assortment for porte-crayon—Future aviator, Amelia
Sometime shilling ladies
separates at Marshall Field’s (1934)—Convening the poetic styles of Ariel and
Prospero in The
Dyer’s Hand (1916), if to echo Dr. Johnson’s pragmatism for reading
the work, to better endure it—Frost’s Axe-Helve (1917)
is a work of Prospero, whose speaker is first ensnared by an old-growth alder
thicket and cover for woodcocks, at the basis whose Frankia nitrogen-fixing
root nodules pioneer glacial tills and watercourses for lucerne, clover and
other fodder crops, and when he is put upon by a rustic, a demonstration of the
poll properly hung on the hand carved and waved length of axe handle, on it
alternately sits as a snake, attaint by the suggestion of Eve—Domino
Effect of education, with
nothing fit to congratulate—To the collaborators of the Occupation, most of
which were women, not above some subterranean anti-Semitism to give their
children the advantage, and then such a project is henceforward
abandoned—Thrown upon signs, the structure to activity relationship
conferring the antimicrobial bioactivity of phenazine-1-carboxylic acid (PCA)
By an amide jam of the
binding site (rNTP) blocking RNA transcription for the cell wall synthesis of
Gram positives such as Staph aureus—Signifier
and signified at the micro-level, and all over the body, as they later turned
out to be, by examination of Dr. Johnson’s dictionary, bowing to the compiler’s
skepticism marked by zero entries for “X” (15 April 1755)—What then, of the
precedence of the signified in copies after Ferdinand de Saussure (d. 1913)—
Benn: And the plunder in
the spliced bacterial servants turning out the product(s) of interest—Present
company excepted, the ladies to Johnson’s popularization, of many a helpmate
and termagant, with aims to fund hand-blocked wall finishings, and only then,
to endow a hospital wing—Countering Saussure’s
Signification to Peirce’s
third, the interpretant—With a working knowledge of female poetics; consigned
to the children’s table, to use your words, to cite Susan Howe’s Pierce-Arrow (1998)
that made more of her microform process in the basements of the Ivies than
meaning of the ruinous affair of Juliette Peirce, who threw $2000 of her
husband’s inheritance into Arisbe, their Miletus in Milford (1887)—Champagne,
To drink to them, among
the water-drinkers as Samuel Johnson—While exhaustive, the usage elides over
Socrates’s wife, Xanthippe, and modernity’s unforeseeable xanthine derivatives,
caffeine, theobromine and methylbromine, the caffeine, chocolate and tea,
without which we could not live—Botany is rich in x-words; the hydrostatic
network, xylem, and xylan the birchwood biopolymer, a polysaccharide perfected
with fluorine substituents for PTFE, known as Teflon (1938)—Finished cellulose
of reams for mono inkjets from the brainchild of Xerox PARC (1970)—Daniel Glück
who suggested his brother-in-law’s X-Acto knife for hobbyists, and whose
laureate daughter, Louise Glück enlists Vija Celmins for the anthology cover, a
1985 mezzotint of Saturn, a symbolic home planet, and the sign of Sontag’s
essays, time, the medium of constraint,
inadequacy, repetition, and mere fulfillment (2013)—Pseudomonas species
produce pyocyanin, a phenazine
Together, with
iron-binding pyoverdine, a green-blue biofilm colonizing wounds and
tracheostomies best treated with ciprofloxacin, receiving FDA approval in 1987,
and still the most effective monotherapy, aerosolized or oral—Microbes; his
coinage, and their causal link with post-operative infections were first
articulated by Sédillot by the slough of beryl drainage on dressings
(1850s)—The bacterial virulence based on this aptitude for iron scavenging
siderophores, which sequester free iron for erythrocytes, effectively starving
them—Compared to the immune conflagration to erysipelas, where Chekhov observed
to Suvorin, the
growth of malignant tumors is temporarily checked (1890)—On suspicion
he had been harboring the tuberculin bacilli, Chekhov went to Sakhalin to
conduct a census, and perhaps this shrugging off of despair with action is
foreshadowed by the farce-vaudeville, The Bear (1888)
that culminates in a duel with an indebted widow, and allusions to the military
caste brought to the capital for preferment—Luka, the footman, points out to
his mistress that the invitations will appear less and less, and the
opportunities for a husband at dances, knowing not whether it is Peterhof or
Versailles at a court ball in domino
Cloak and mask—Elena
Popova offstage meets Smirnov in the garden, which would have been the
preoccupation, as it is ours in quarantine three-abreast in grocery aisles, as
it would be for a hostess in another life, Amelia
Matilda:
Alternately, the final transmission’s one-half hour fuel and no landfall,
and I think about you, no less with the makings of the Sun, as the one-time
vegetal sprite Ariel concludes in The Planet on the
Table (1953); however, awkwardly, to land, and once again, to bear
living—Had Amelia
Stayed
in Atchison, the days at premed Columbia and the sale of the first plane for
the Yellow Peril (1923) to the initial westward flight from Oakland (21 May
1937), she would not have ended scattered among the poorly mapped Marshall
Islands depositing a compact mirror and a solitary finger bone on Nikumaroro
seamount (2019), then Gardner Island—The fireside inquisition before father
founded the progressive education of Adrienne Necker de Saussure
Spouse
of Jacques Necker, nephew of the botanist and banker to Louis XVI (1771-1790)
credited with streamlining and abolishing sinecures, indemnities and serfdom,

Necker, the Northwestern Hawaiian Island is named for the La Pérouse expedition
(1786) benefitting from infusions of livres from the finance minister—Could it
have been the the fifth Royal Astronomer Nevil Maskelyne (1765), who enlarges
the solar system, and upgrades Herschel’s comet, and thereby equating advancing
light years with the sight line of progenitors, to Uranus—Living off the
interest, Mrs. Thrale at 35 (1765), Dr. Johnson at 70, as it is implied, Oft in
danger, yet alive—A year prior to the publication of Swift’s Letters to
Stella (1766), where Esther Johnson, no relation to Samuel Johnson,
may have been his wife—One of six aluminum-plaster editions of a dry, upraised
quill or Dürer’s praying hands (1508) in poorer materials, Barbara Hepworth, at
55, had wanted for her headstone, Cantate Domino (1958)—

of the vines of the pays de la craie, Champagne
Cretaceous
marine layers with iron filings or cendres, boué de la ville amendments, and
regulated pruning since 1938, and as such, the connoisseur stakes the holograph
of Earth, and with simulation redundancy the axe handle reenters the
forest—From the nebular hypothesis gleaned from Swedenborg, Laplace’s first
volume of Mécanique
celeste (1799) resolves the motion of Saturn in relation to its
Galilean giant, Jupiter, while in the same city Marie Lenormand’s fashioning
her divination cards alongside intimate correspondence to Joséphine, whom she
correctly predicts will be Empress—A contemporary of Laplace, Jean Sylvain
Bailly reads the situation of the orbits into a generalized notion of
anomalies, and transforms them into the systematic study of
differentials—Projecting them into masses where his rational right hand is
raised and highlighted at the center of David’s sketch of Le Serment du Jeu de
paume (15 July 1790), Bailly serves as the first mayor and solves the
Commune’s liquidity problems with the seizure of Church assets—From there, much
of the Parisian terrain is pouilleuse, flea-bitten, and fractured to incursions
of the water table, and the resulting vintage is characterless and waterlogged,
which, from the partially methylated dunes are violet with fiber optic UV
lights entwined the cultivars of Laguna West, which bear
More
resemblance to the epiphytes of the Amazon basin, and the last subject heading of your lecture tour of the interior of Brazil—That is, before you set off for Pallas-Yllästunturi National Park with a Finnish colleague; just to mention this selectivity of focus, priority from human relations, the stocks pare their losses and close in the green, just as the committed materialist stoops in the lead of Anthony Perkins from behind, when the auroras of that season had already arrived—Out of boredom with Haussmann’s avenues, the intellectuals of
the time had to go slumming—Inheritors of Valéry’s cooled moonscape, Et puis, nous sommes morts sur le mousse (1892)—Above the Arctic circle, the Oymyakon,
Sakha, Greenland and then arriving counter-rotatory to the Chena Lakes of
Alaska crouching over surviving lichen ice-encased and erupting into bloom
between thaws, and accommodating studies of their antimicrobial activity
against Staph
aureus as effectively as bacterial phenazines—
Benn: Sunset on the radio spires of Electric City, I recall you threw aside some quarterly of Paula Rego, to see nothing edifying in the actresses paunched, bending on arthritic knees, and somewhere in these domestic settings, their adversaries, which the blinds slice, rise to exaggerate their claims—The home-seeking impulse that sent out to one’s ladies in waiting an admixture of pinke and blew bice to dye velvet green; the Lady, weakening, drinks from an inkwell of iron gall, and pauses before Auden's The glacier knocks in the cupboard, / The desert sighs in the bed (1940)—Faulted then, toward frontiers unchallenged by phenazine
Biosynthesis and
methanogenesis on extra-terrestrial subsoil, the humanities would be called upon to choose a wallpaper for the crypt, enjoined by an issue
of monodies to Amelia
Intoned from the sedan
passenger’s seat—It was an underestimation of the tectonic rebound of the

In space—Lowell and
Bishop met in Brazil (1962), where the former mulled over the honest split-pine
floor of his cousin’s New England homestead, “Soft Wood” for this sixth book
(1964), from where he stood at the base of the buttressed roots of the Mallow
family (Malvaceae)
wreathed in kapok pods exploded with excelsior, as the cosmetic cotton balls
he’d reached for in his many run-ins, holding 36 times its compressed weight in
water, gathered for life vests—With this capacity to catch fire erotically, there is diminishing speculation behind preoccupying
Woodstock mud orgies, installations of the corrupted body in abstracted
shorthand—Burning away the dross of mores, personality, morality with the
businessperson’s club with the caged artists pushing for their own degradation
called equality, having achieved the last-minute codicils for correctness and
technological mechanisms of Augustine’s reformulation of Sallust’s libido dominandi (426
C.E.)
Matilda: Sade’s model for
the Republic (1791)—In less than a month, given the consumer’s fatigue with
pornography, then the narrative of contagion, with subjects meant to distantly
parade, if the donning and doffing of this costume did not shed viral capsid
waiting to reanimate in a susceptible host, in domino
Underscored by the PSA for
conscientious types: Who have you accidentally killed today?—A conscious
occupation of marine Vibrio (Pseudomonas) natriegens,
with a generation time of less than 10 minutes, the shortest to date (Eagon,
1962), and tagged with the virulence factors interconverting pyocyanin to
1-hydroxyphenazine (1-HP)—
Free-radical forming and
aspirated from the reactive airway that cedes to the improbable admission of
thousands of viruses in one drop of seawater—Notably absent from the fossil
record, there, records the passage of plants as chalk, foretelling coal only by
differences in pressure and overburden, and requiring an iron amendment for
vines designated for champagne—

Sedley Osbourne
(1847-8)—Here, the ax head had fallen into the river Nahar, the personified
body of the Canaanite Yam, Elisha, by taking a branch from a nearby tree a splint, of
what Linnaeus overlooked, a species of Leonni’s Parallel Botany (1976),
to reattach the floating iron and establish priority over the Jordan for their
camp (2 Kings 6)—Built on the swoop and cambered edge of Ochsenkopf (1781), and
into the subsidiary of a pro-growth multinational Gedore’s opening of
Ferramentas do Brazil (1960) and the introduction of the Dremometer (1963), a
precision tool for the twelve-cylinder engine of the newly formed impresa
Automobili Lamborghini (1963)—The market herding in the Borsa, the Hadrianeum
(145 C.E.) from Antonioni’s L’Eclisse (1962) features beyond
the back and forth of Vittoria and Piero, she first leaves for her flat, the
fossilized primrose in her library, and then after an awkward interlude in a
narrow bed above the framed portraits of her parents—Recalls Little Gidding’s parched eviscerate
soil (IV.2.65) clashing with Mina and the composer, Giovanni Fusco,
the latter credited as Ammonio, the alchemical sal ammoniac that dissolves all
metals, even lead, intoning the agonies of the Twist after the
radioactive times they are in, to halt burying the roses in fire, if one atom
at time, bearing

Saussure (1916)—
Benn and Matilda review
the scenario on a red-eye home with their fuselage sustaining even more gamma

Markets and abroad;
partly, because she cannot bear to rejoin their number, fluorescing yellow as
signage, as phenazine producing colonies, in late nights, at her age, careening
into open taxis—He matches her bid and produces a catalog of trade secrets, the
ultraviolet (UV) and electron beam (EB) curing of printed materials known and
underutilized since the 1960s, impressing investors for their instant adhesion
of the substrate, and meaning a variety of applications—Boswell’s reporting
that men might opt for a passive Amelia; afraid of women knowing more than
themselves, without referring to who is whom, they drink one glass of champagne
for heart health, for resveratrol, picking up at their last topic from step
aerobics—
