Inverted Commas: The Gruesome Obituary
The master-signifier digs down with his crooked two-fingered hands,
Crushing in his evil embrace the Is and Wes and Uses,
Like frightened children we freeze – before escaping
Into the prison of the organless body.
The lines of flight cry out for fellow travelers. Assemble!
Gasping in the foaming ocean of desire we multiply, rebel.
WANTED: Nomads itching to stay, craving soil and muddy rivers,
Nimble-footed and heavy-handed, rambling.
Tucked between inverted commas concepts wither,
Without struggle, without song, locked in archeology.
De-terra incognita.
LIBERTAD!
Personal pronouns of the world, unite. Stream the code.

Thank you so much for your previous post, Yusef. It's a lovely concept to see our blog as a desiring machine. Let's keep that thought and create.
I've had a little fun with this poem - just to get rid of the upside down commas.
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Orla
