FROM ALL SIDES BEAUTIFUL
snow
from all sides beautiful
capable, as it falls, of more than a thousand million computations with sliding
decimal per second
on the ground
makes blackbirds
blacker, and robins red
sometimes the wind makes it rise again
light of snow light of day light of night
light of night by day
I’ve never known
each is in its freedom huge, in its prison
schnee
void lamp
von allen seiten schön
Degas shouted not to shout
swon
my
snow female snow male same sweat tears urine
I leaned my gigantic hand up against her body
when melting
there’s a moment when there’s nothing left in the field
but a small monotype
the most pubis in the world
pretty
