Everything is becoming most peculiar A strange carnavalesque atmosphere is gently blowing around me Time has moved, passed, drifted, gone back, gone forward, gone down, gone up There is a tepid touch on me, I shake; feel infinity of tears without inventory or cause While the sun gives two shadows to one shape I see the seven minute blackness of 2186 Now pictures of shadows turn their faces from me Words run away in fear the streets are crowded with screaming, squealing sentences Squalls of coloured vowels scurry, furtive and fearful Consonants collide with each other in their panic to escape As the blinding ignorance of βnormalityβ hunts down the paragraphs Books, notes and letters are piled, a huge bonfire is lit The flesh of words, of thoughts of alternatives melts The flames are stoked, ashes fly spiralling into the air The smell of bitter blackness is pervasive and prolonged A bleak confession to tragedy.
