The Fixing Mind by Bertram SparagmosRegress.
Wrap yourself in newspaper armor.
Letters and sales.
The veneer holding back the world
Into pictures and text
Scrolling on lighted screens
But I have been inside,
And I am a predator.
I want for the creases.
Peeling
To turn the screws down into your soft self,
Pin you to the unforgiving earth,
Force your eyes upward
To see an expanding cosmos
Shining back its love for you. 10/16/2012
