an experiment in found poetry

[lotesse]

notebook poem*

standardization, homogenization,
hygiene, urbanization

lack of anxiety about the
sybilline leaves

the stuff of ordinary being

but also orgasm denial

give me
a definition of summary

sexual love can be both embrace
and punishment

okay, I know this -

compassion requires violence: love
and conquest jammed together

the sadness of the story

I see a lot of chances to succeed
with this one


*all words taken from my notebook for this semester, ie the one that I started a month ago. Contains notes, drafts, lesson plans, and other unattached thoughts.

Thanks! I had no idea if it would come out, but - lecture notes are oddly poetic things, yanno?
