Marie Menken
that's not a flashlight, that's the moon ingest splendor see energy cry out for your own annihilation became healing the blundering and tormented process the overheard initiation the smoke alarms, the big corporate pay-off the smell better than the taste secret plantings, the tendency born into it, rejecting it hydroelectric power... the hand designed to hold the tree the mind designed to move the hand-- the mind is based on trees... the grandchildren, bleached paper the drug treatment center... subatomic realist a set of emotions based on a set of facts coming and going as sickness does bracing remains by telephone creation joined to firewood the distance between the feelings and the plans charged particles churning out particularities of interaction deadened space, end over end shot Frick in Pennsylvania minerals...stumbling is it better to put as much distance between you and the monsters as possible, or the other way around symmetrical relations I don't ever want to forget
