Let us forge and forget this date,
or our mined name
(name = mineminemine)
for history.
Lettuce can be burled down
to something very slimy.
Boiled sounds less better:
She (laugh-track) has a nice set of [laugh-track],
butter face (canned Hahahaha).
Hour mind for history e-
rased.
Hour mind for race:
slow.
Our (mine and yours together (en-
gendered)) e-race
mean someotherthing more electric
than all the rest
of things
set out asleep before us.
Here:
A calendar is dated and raced from.
It was the start of someone’s life
impregnated there on the numbers. They can’t
seem to re-mem-
ber it—
1. fill the day with arms and legs
2. put them all away
But say this day was a fly
in the heart of cold December, then:
1. No longer to remain part of
2. Erase or disengage
A broken reactive memo-ring
(notes and facts)
around the rosie.
Or the notion (swap ‘o’ for ‘a’)
of ever growing up. A ______ pocket-full of
all sound all the same. Pose: Fall d___.
Boiled d___.
Burled and pre-sen-table. What gets raised.
B1: see chart and table.
