Pierrot Mask

amnesiac anaesthetized in my mind out of my mind in two minds no more


am I anywhere or nowhere


at all times or no time


I am metaphor I am symbol


every possible antithesis simultaneous


looking for coigns of vantage for pitfalls for confrontations with the other


contemptuous and contrite


how many letters unopened faces avoided or misread how many places passed through blindly and words spoken stupidly and things idly lost


inadvertently I breathe exist ad infinitum ad nauseam to stop short


denouements none but moments dense and unreal a grammar never mastered


accidence of happenstance


solipsist’s solfeggio recidivist’s fandango


history histories for all it is worth


catoptromancer in a city of mirrors I do my thing and eat from demons’ hands


apathy aeipathy my identical twins
