I love that this poem can be read so many different ways, as blocks of flowing prose or in tandem as whispers upon the other.

Hey D! This was the first piece I ever read from you, and at first read I understood absolutely nothing, except that I've never seen something formatted in this way before (and that Ian liked it-that's how I first found you!). I was honestly kind of scared to approach it because I don't want to 'read it the wrong way' but I've read it again, and I still couldn't understand too much, except that I like to look at it a lot from time to time. I know there's something bigger and I'm just not there yet, but I feel like that other poem too, Jouissance i think, I think part of that one takes place in a dream or something in the morning or in bed (it definitely felt like a trip or dream tho 🔥), and yeah, I know I just gotta keep looking at it again and stuff, but yeah. Really cool stuff D! I'm gonna be reading this over again soon!

Something with a flavor other than “flamin’ hot” or “cool ranch”!

It reminds me of a Shakespearean prologue, but with two omniscients singing in countermelody.

Very cool; I’m now following your trail, and picking up what you drop:)
