Pressure change 
broke surface tenderness 
forethought from an experience 
of various temperaments 
as a sweve of, the figure John Varley 
named, Blake's Instructor with 
an emblematic fire tree above his eyes, 
if that's what it is, 
enters the imagination from 
the skylight in the form of a wave 
described by a naval architect as a hump 
took off in the wake of boat stop 
down canal without change 
entered perception as a light trap, 
a spatio-temporal shape of incoherent 
white-glare from a light bulb 
self-trapped in a speckled crystal 
strontium, barium, niobium, oxygen 
embedded in the centre of his forehead 
an intuitive interactive environment 
fast and easy plasmid map construction 
newly amplified 
flow-sorted micro-dissected 
brightly fluorescing 
No wonder his head hurts 
The magnitude of non-linearity relates 
to the time and space for relaxation 
In a shuttle the Instructor elucidates 
colloidal crystallisation an 
effect of gravity on his air-free face 
a Focus Team watch random stacking 
of hexagonally close-packed planes 
in a mirror and on screen 
the mud at Glastonbury beyond fence rows 
gravitational stresses, sedimentation, 
concentration gradients at the Giant's Causeway 
simulated hard spheres in a phase diagram 
reverberated on a drum machine 
The mistakes already made in the feel for physicality 
repeated in the field of intellectual work 
bludgeoned at the fence.

Ambitious to enlarge the boundaries 
to a knowledge of those precepts 
to which every thing that aspires 
must be proportioned and accommodated 
to the fire that implies foresight 
until attention totally engaged applies cadmium, 
cuts hedge, prunes roses, confirms work on portraits. 
Deferred gratification perishes to rise in amazement 
dawn-shine on the face of the Tor 
desirable lustre a hare in moonlight 
with its eyes open asleep 
proceeds with deliberation with detour 
behaviour conducive to wisdom and compassion 
reach a nonremovable singularity in which 
individual cells of the heart's pacemaker node 
normally synchronise each other. 
His, so-called, fourth hand carries a ring of ball 
bearings to represent a dodecagon 
Pleasure range brokes surrounding 
dimension accumulated energy 
tripped in walkway over large child 
entered columned chaos 
from egg to winged barrel 
a particulate power wave or guardian 
abluted at each contamination 
plutonium toffees  "burning"  "dry" 
the Focus Team's highly spiced gaze 
delirious or at sea promotes 
discussion of preference for memory 
before imagination or an involuntary 
divination practised by everyone 
through their blood sugar how 
volcanic crystals by their own power 
fly, allow reason to energise irrespective 
of whether what it says can happen 
irrelevant to discussions of 
whether the soul can cloud and lift or 
the activities of thermal gases become 
hatred, a mould in the stomach 
akin to an ulcer fed with young chillies 
call Here we go here we go here we go.

The Focus Team clean their teeth in 
carbon and selenium solutions before 
the Painter applied red cadmium 
wears the conceit of 
a chrome oxide, called green, shirt 
Society cloaked a troubled history 
male human endeavour walks with 
a stoop beneath weight of burden 
the primate back fault measured by 
sizes given by sample, he remembers, 
because they said that, with a 
measurement, some people cheat 
taking an inside of the 
millimetre line or she factures 
the picture in her head rather 
than the one immediately in view 
pervades the medium then phases 
at once in particulate and wave forms 
a mammalian ventricular tissue spiral 
propagates around a cardiac arrest 
an amalgamation of niches 
in delusions of understanding shapes 
close to Archimedean screws 
shovel mud at Glastonbury 
scrolls rotate and drift 
swallowed photocopies 
choked in glass of 14 year Islay 
silver fragments eye catch 
crystallised water 
on the bathroom tumbler chrysalis 
in an inclined plane suddenly 
the speed of light caught 
in a web angled across skyframe 
she pulled through the window 
rolled down the roof into 
stop at the wet gutter 
pressure change 
broke surface tension where 
a tap drip hits the forehead 
from an experience 
of various temperatures.
