Airless is the room of No one-Will-Ever-Read-This; & how prodigious the pretence of breathing there! –Yet it must be done.

"Poetry, while not the only discipline in which the above theoretical concerns might be investigated, offers a useful basis for modeling the vexatious relationship between glitch and disability largely in its emphasis on the fragment: moments of break or slippage within an otherwise coherent literary object, which are then rehabilitated as that object's primary loci of meaning."

“Tear Me a River”

Prepare thy shadowy car
Prepare thy shadowy car
For tomorrow a rebus
For tomorrow a rebus
Thy shadowy rebus tomorrow
Prepare for a car.

My fardels outrun the thieves
My fardels outrun the thieves
Echoing to the battle’s roar
Echoing to the battle’s roar
Thieves outrun the battle’s fardels
The roar to my echoing.

Fardels for my car a rebus
To outrun the battle’s tomorrow;
The echoing roar
Prepare thy shadowy thieves.
