dawn — nominal heirlooms
(for julia rose quella)

03–24–23
a murmuration,
like swelling,
a wind, a caydence
what undulant rushes
Thumbs spading clay,
the vapid membrane of
our imprints.
the mechanical droning
of haven fleeting
always.
errant ripening sediment
life without
that ever so consistent.

Gegenschein
09-24-2021
The Gegenschein, English counter-glow, or anti-solar point, describes the sun’s nebulous reflections upon dust and gas outside of our atmosphere. Us, as living beings, and objects as a kind of illuminate being, constantly emit a counter-glow that blooms an infinite amount of realities. This pan-conscious relationship (shared between human and object) opens the door to something uncanny - an unreachable entity outside of oneself, an abstract and unbearable multiplicity.

That [( )]
06-03-2021
The artifacts left behind in the making of this post-human mythology are notes fourth removed from a sentient being. Objects re-encountered through an ecology built from faint tracings of previous records. Reality as a momentary encounter can be mimicked and replicated, but nothing accounts to a certain truth. We are drawn to the world’s articles, they beckon to us, inviting their own exploration and synthesis.
