I

 

friction

percussion

hidden inside trees

four men walking

two side posts an upper door post

in his right hand seven stars

algor rigor

livor

voices rarely

ascending or descending together

a movement / contraries

finding unfathomable spaces

around which grammar

shapes no shapes

punctus contra punctum

rods firing under change in intensity

constructing an edge

the straight line as curve of zero curvature

ó ghlúin

an effect of scale

permanence

having pulses

zero a simplicity

straining to catch

barely audible improvisations

escaping the gaps

between angle and try-square
