Re-conditioned

Crawling in the desert

There is dust

Growing my mouth


I have scrambled in-between parallel lines

Cracked my head on a hidden hypoteneuse


Which hurts.


My palate turns dust-gray.

To set my limbs:

That is the meaning of this dust,

So finely pressed to skin

As to appear one with it;


But it is an outside violence.


Reason has passed

Through the Gut .

And trapped by intestinal wisdom,

Dust is outstripped.


I fear nothing else.
