#definitely the same features of a single malady. life’s wounds are incurable #anxieties about bodies and atomic power #all yr bodies alive and defunct #this is the city of spare parts #murderous part objects #the intimacy between things and human beings has created all sorts of symbolic disorders from the very beginning #human forms are puny #an undifferentiated vesicle of irritable matter #she's a paramecium she has no blood she's a bacterium she has no blood #am i an impermeable membrane #the skin sack in which a wanton duality packed #feel my hand feel my you might as well say hand #it is the gelatin of your own eyeball #we're lit up inside ourselves by the giant spotlights #but at least i am poison the witch the malady #but the overall thrust is discourse with the dead and a remaking of the universe #svetlana alexievich #ingeborg bachmann #raquel salas rivera #alice notley #todesarten

Grenade in Mouth: Some Poems of Miyó Vestrini | Translation by Anne Boyer & Cassandra Gillig | Selection by Faride Mereb & Elisa Maggi

#the intimacy between things and human beings has created all sorts of symbolic disorders from the very beginning #what was mundane is now hurtful & demented #murderous part objects #printed linens #this pathological building #to be home in horror #standing in the laundry doorway replenishing the capacity to imagine a domestic glow #can there be a personless tableau #all procedures for being alive are haunts #to infuse with menace the lives women are supposed to want #you're going to spend your life fighting your life #the mass carnage that finds its domestic epitome #miyó vestrini #anne boyer #cassandra gillig #faride mereb #elisa maggi

#murderous part objects #woman and the demon #the intimacy between things and human beings has created all sorts of symbolic disorders from the very beginning #all procedures for being alive are haunts #a large number of examples can be found in the reports of the inspectors of factories #next to a factory that manufactured saints #human forms are puny #the tyrant owns form #you can include everything that's things #raquel salas rivera #karl marx

#how can anyone hold a job these days if they aren't even raising the dead #a story of the workers and the worked #the intimacy between things and human beings has created all sorts of symbolic disorders from the very beginning #a large number of examples can be found in the reports of the inspectors of factories #can there be a personless tableau #standing in the laundry doorway replenishing the capacity to imagine a domestic glow #sincere domestic horrorshow #to be home in horror #the mass carnage that finds its domestic epitome #abstract preparedness as a female disease #to infuse with menace the lives women are supposed to want #you're going to spend your life fighting your life #this position has much to recommend in it but perhaps it is not quite invidious enough #she gained entry into the world by a mysterious loophole in its metaphysics #blind to women's plots #i have nothing to do with explosions #murderous part objects #an undifferentiated vesicle of irritable matter #but the overall thrust is discourse with the dead and a remaking of the universe #all procedures for being alive are haunts #leah muddle #karl marx #alice notley
