NOTES TO SELF

Compressions
Stagger wazoo exaggerations

*

You (I)
Substitute your (my)
Hypotheses for
Mine (yours)

*

I want to get to know you
You are nowhere to be found

*

I can’t hear you

*

Vocalize a picture

*

When I
Was you

I wouldn’t

Have talked
To me

*

When you
Were me

I saw
Someone else

*

Look at me, damn it
I’m beside myself

*

It’s the things
One forgets about
(tante cose)

*

Everything between

*

performs perfumes
of
our
my aspect

*


Dichtung hammer stammering

*

The flower
Is present

In the fruit
(contra Hegel)

My shadow
Precedes me

*

I’m not
Enough of
Any thing
To be

*

Noise and weeds
In an expanding
Field encroach on
The Pronoun Forest

*

Wiggle room
Is where

I we
Things live

In and out
Of loopholes

*

Are things
Continua or
Just Gods

*

Apparitions (appearances) disappear

*

Repetition isn’t
Not a guarantor
Of anything

*

This and
The unthought

There is Outside
All the specters

Notescaping
The photograph

*

Is what
I see
There

Is that
What
I see

*

Subroutines
Subtractions
Subreactions
Shadows
Erasures

*

P and not-p

*

Try to unzip finight talk-sick daze
Try to pull out of it

*

Try to peel yourself

*

Of the ribbon I am

*

Separated by bullets

*

Punctuation marks
Sites of leakage

*

I am
A calendar colander

*

Masks dissolve into masks

*

Marx dissolves into marks

*

I’m melting

*

I’m molting


*

Being and language
Are the luggage

*

(con)Templating

*

Who hears changes

*

Breaks

*

Separations
Vanishing points

*
Locked out
Keywords

*

“Guido io
vorrei
che tu…”

*

A dark
“Would have”

*

Musics of inference
And static cling

*

That being said

*

Don’t read
Too much
Into this

(Nor
Too
Little)

*

Don’t surrender
To procedure

*

Remember when
I used
To dream
Of you

*

Remember when
I used to
Repeat myself

*

This is everything
Everything is this
Metaphor and metaphysics

*

My history
Is built
On a scaffold
Of erasures

*

Become more diaphanous

*

Misalignmeants

*

Something other than

*

The exercise of images

*

The music of aromas

*

Boulder
Lever
Catapult

*

Multiple choice interstices

*

Seize the partitionable

*

Blues

*

Blurring propositions

*

Always already unhinged

*

Always already singing

*

Erase to
The bottom
