this will be

this will be a backwards mask
this will be self-abasing
this will be scrofulous and un-dexterous

so

this will be loutish
this will be petty
this will be unpleasant

i am feeling unpleasant

this will be something of a cure
this will be an ad hoc exorcism
this will be generated by piston thumbs

and (this will include a photograph of carpet)

this will be the denouement
this will be the end of this
this will be all of that

What I’m Reading:

“When I die, I will come in fast and low. I will stick the landing. There will be no confusion. The dead will make room for me.”
