Re-depersonalization
Myocardial depersonalization, a cold, dispassionate heartlessness, gunmetal blue veins, ventricle congestion, an indifference to difference. Lacuna was mistaken, the unconscious is not structured like a language, but rather our interpretation, decoding and translation of the images, repressed memories and do-dads. We are perpetual-translating-machines, trying to decode and make sense of the translations that came before, those handed down from mommy-daddy, grandpa-grandma, Adam-Eve, the closed-off hermeneutical circle, the Nietzschean roundworm devouring it’s own tail, a tail which is neither skullcap or caudal, but a seamless confluence of either or.
Tope Fingers
tope fingers
and blue stone eyes
and your mother’s frail stitching
on hem
and collar
nametags and curlicues
all but forgotten
Or…
I have neither feelings
or thoughts
nor have I intuitions
Or memories
I have neither emotions
or intellect
nor have I a meaning
Or a purpose
nor have I memories
or thoughts
nor purpose of thought
Or meaning
nor intellect of self
or a thought of
nor purpose of meaning
Or-----
