Gilles Poem 102: for Utensils and Their Care
Here I go, crying
---two parts----------into one-----(and)----------O Gilles, now I need you
you scrape up
--------------for example, the cravat bandage
with a square knot
“to prevent slipping.”----------you look so beautiful-----but, why----------can’t I see
it?
or epidemic.-------------------God Gilles, I think I get it
---it should be long enough to tuck in----------I am picking the lint off your chin
like an accent------------------------God Gilles, are you here-----with me?-----it’s
-----------------------------------what Artaud did
-----with French. ----------------------------I am blinking-----but
they function
as indexes
---------------------------------“merely a production” ----you are.---and it calls forth flows
---------------& breaks
yes, we are
so sick
-------------but isn’t it true,
-------------even if we go back
-------------from the images
-------------to the structure?
