There does not need to be an event
that precedes wetness. To pull saline coins from a spinning or a wave is
enough. This is being done because we refuse the sea being offered to us, with
it already having been emptied. We refuse a blank sea.
In pursuit of native gists we
obsessively etch shamanist chants onto the bones of shamans long past. We mate
spectrally, somewhere between even and uneven. Sensory copula keeps us
continual.
Is it possible that we are ever
born into too much desire? With too much desire? Is it possible
that in a moment there could ever be the sensory experience of too much desire
in a virago’s body?
The virago’s body is vibrating biomass.
