”There is an erotics of being not exclusive to its humanized form. All things selve.” Desmond, The Voiding of Being, 212.
Out minding my own
business. A stray snow flake
melts on my forehead.
Water everywhere.
I’m an island with islands
all around. Now this.
Snow analogies.
Everything selves. Who am
I to argue now?
