Epos tilt her watery vertigo ("slats") drenched pearl
or "flesh" smudges faking burns in river, glassy fibers
flicker shifts the dawn wheel (speed of shirt), pulse
dotted things hump
haze memory, vapid gods long the map stuttering,
ah flashlight wriggling! pure verb the, wisps unable,
awake the "damaged thing", lotus pagination knotted (whirls
