Urban tissue pathologies
or those sentences already written
in gloomy chromosome seventeen
(and ask me whether I hate promises).
Accidents never happen
you should know:
not even the bite of Treitz’s muscle,
anxiety, tumultus sermonis, anthraxes,
or pervigilium veneris
solo
,
perversion, moral dementia,
impatient jungle proliferation
(Old Faithful Koch Bacillus),
equinoctial burning of whines,
kind tabes of adolescence,
afternoon marsh fevers,
makes you an idiot for life,
inflammatory process emotion
continues after the dream in the street…
Leprosy, tangled filariae
imitate bowels and seminal ducts;
Fate writes sentences on the bones,
hysterical conversion, toxins,
paralogies from the depths of the sea
at the base of the brain polyps, hippocampi.
Which is the innocent species of this
monkey unleashed without reason,
the rhythmic hard core of histamine?
