a new song

Written by Stephanie Scott

my first digisynth song about a woeful and mysterious foot injury is only a herald of greater, as yet unborn auralities to come.

a new analogy

Written by Stephanie Scott

internet is to the medical profession

as luther, the first mass-printed copies of the Bible and secular intransigence were to roman catholic hierarchy.

little shoots

Written by Stephanie Scott
oh how I wish for ancient times!
the poets didst dish more epic rhymes
and Greek men languished by the sea
suffering waves of epiphany...
"Let me tell you the one
about the fish heads in the gruel pot."

"All of which signifies naught."

"But..."

"Naught!"

"A head boils for a starving man's fete
and you call that..."

"That's right, irrelevant."

"But the fish is the sea, and the sea the fish."

"No!"

"And its head is inscrutable knowledge,
farmed with a cleaver,
pastiche'd in a paste
and served on a great ship's night wreckage."

 

"And the stars are above and the stars are below?
and their signs tell men which way to go?"

 

"No.  The stars are just lights beglitter'n the sky--
their reflections are portraits on fire."

"Good."

"The great ship's great compass smashed to kettle the stew,
and the small ones were plates for the crew."

"Beautiful.  Back to the sea!  The retreat!"

"If our life e'er eked from that place..."

"To eat and to speak only words that are pure,
the sickness of order to cure!
Against definition, may life be inured
forever!  forever!  for..."

"Bore!"

All, I stair

Written by Stephanie Scott
all, I stair or stare?
yes, you done good getting up
there
as
somebody somewhere knows.
say hey!
the eggs are all smashed on the floor
he said.
the will of the maker to make in the spring--
the heart of the entrepreneur!
the womb of the stock of his store.

collective us

Written by Stephanie Scott
phalanx of moose
serenely goring,
their satisfied, steady
plod eviscerating enemies
so excellently in uniformity.
and how dark that sound,
that hum of grumbling ground
as they relate, prate, bloviate,
in rich fur gowns,
the fable of natural unity.

wake up somewhere strange

Written by Stephanie Scott
the world loses definition
and the words, too.

 

night of vacuums,
light of loss.

 

the hopes of the faithful disintegrate
like darkness at dawn.
