Constellation
Full poem published on Cordite here. Opens with a quote from Hélène Cixous ".... thought is not a sentence at all but after an explosion a fall out in word... " from Cixous' incredible essay 'Without end, no State of drawingness, no, rather: The Executioner's taking off". Quote is followed by an ink image and a poem:
... Strolling under a constellation
Some moments strike like lightning
Spasmodic astral body, gambler's luck
"toute pensée emit un coup de dés"
Ink swirling residual patterns down a sink.
Time passes: A Window's Light on the Floor under the Chair
