Inner Palpability
Implied inner palpability as transpersonal dictation
all works composed as a musical ark
as if rowing in an isthmus of lightning
the threat through rising vapour currents
hissing with dissolution
this being none other than internal cartography
ghostly cipher as interiority by number
again ghostly flares & ciphers as if the arc from lunar suns had risen
therefore suns appearing above suns
ignited via the blue fragmentation that is grace
