A digital cut and paste poem that reads: Is it really possible / this mad dream, / that runs counter to / Their nauseating / calculations, / the perilous / black ice / dim eyes / blinding sun / cruel visions, / confused colors, / peering over my shoulder. / Do I not fall? / No, they do not know / Truly, truly, / We are that / Burning / destiny / made of the same / agonizing / momentum, / Each / desiring / surrendering / as it should be, / and it is only perfect / fatal in its beauty— / this / event horizon / awaiting, / in us...

Composed on the 1st of September 2025.
