Drafted


from letting bleed

Drafted

Indefinable bubbling down-
ward              landing image
by scene upon me
        musing
I play with my pen

No limits as
        nothing of this
        is responsible to me
        or I it.
        or I it.
handwriting betrays mimicry

muses in my ears
control laid altar-top
        around
        back
        and ever to the right and down
        outside of me



back to front
back to essay

drafted from letting bleed, chapter one of the master's thesis, for want of an epitaph, by wendy blake
