A recipe may produce breakfast, but I am not nourished by
Your recipe for my world—its cruelty is repugnant or its benignity is like
Benignity rather than thoughtless invisible goodness. Shut your brain up,
So I can wash my hair.

from Dizzying Words

Objects play the game, “here/not here/here/not here.”
The con man on the street corner.
Look for the coin under the cup.
Track it with your eyes: here/not here/here/not here.
Mr. Vertigo, master of the shell game.
