action of twisting, grinding, extracting juice. until you feel pain. until you climb on top of something, and from there the comforting vertigo. the brute fight.
bandages, on feet and hands. twisted body. gross face. resolute face. ridge, shelter.
practice the dance – i told you – practice expectations and deconstructions. on the room floor, in the crevices. remove with red ink what is between the lines. write too much. draw everything, past the emptiness, past the ground: after it aches, rebuild it as if a membrane was never there.
