Alma Matrix

Swimming amniotic in a Guttenberg

Galaxy  all soaking wet in our Post

Literate  Neo Oral whelm so permeate

that it’s  impossible to define damp let

alone  dry.

Or, say: canary in a cage watching our
Fading Mind Shaft End Days never the

Helen Keller never saw a word in her life

or heard one and never the less graduated
