AUTOIMMUNE
IMAGE DESCRIPTION: The image is justified text. The text reads, “The hex is bad, the lack is worse and the proportions are exaggerated. When the lane is elongated by the fence my contribution to the conversation ends with I want more and when the body not of birdsong and the other body not of birdsong meet the body tripping through the morgue, when into the periphery then past my picture window flies the freewheel, cartilage and sinew go to war. // What slope is less than slippery? What force of darkness has the fewest least redeeming features? As adulterated venom’s better, either one man’s half life is another’s doubling time or your disintegration my solidity, my designated drive to drink. I wake to wheels and wheels deceive me neatly, entropy compounding error effortlessly. There’s no pareidolia except in pancakes and, accepting silence, I will dance at drops of hats and I will know the score.
