Pythia Before & After the Egg
Artaud consults a witch doctor, as
chicken wire winks around a martian
sand dune.
a screen experiences morning sickness
during the moon's live feed.
who's busy drumming in-between her
knuckles--as she squeezes through tunnel
vision.
just to see Pythia rolling on the ground to
put herself out, in preparation for an
offering to Helios.
a sallow pouch of poultry skin with an
egg in it.
to exchange her all-seeing blindness with
Helios'--as his: "Nerve Meter" twitches.
*Pythia is the name of the Oracle of Delphi.
