there is as much power in
poetry only one poem has
survived To indicate where words are missing or
independent in
a unique form of
its riveting account
by the mountain of information that
used the text for an erasure
shifting fields of language
For instance,
/ Its / / adjust the / / between
and / across / / and / balance / / against / the instruments
of / change / over every page
preserved words
say
with the alternating tenderness and rage has experienced the uncertainties
of this changed world
Of course,
—even this one.
punctuation
a fledgling independent
