  1. "I am almost convinced (quite contrary to opinion I started with) that species are not (it is like confessing a murder) immutable.... I think I have found out (here's presumption!) the simple way by which species become exquisitely adapted to various ends."

    Darwin, quoted in Roberts, p. 305

  2. Friendly Sparkling Alien Spaceships

    I know, I am again using this metaphor! But once I saw the friendly alien spaceships in these images, I could not unsee them! There is more background information about these sparkling ellipsoid and spheres in my previous post. Today I only want to show you number 2 and 3 in this series of four ... add create overdue poetry! In a private browser window, I am searching for "Friendly Sparkling Alien Spaceships" in DuckDuckGo. Visiting each search result one after the other, I pick a short […]

  3. Circles to Circles #2. A Friendly Death Star.

    My art should speak for itself, as an abstract geometric drawing. But if you are so inclined, you can decode the math. Mathematics shows up twice: In the thing I am depicting, and in the techniques I am using to draw it geometrically. The series Circles of Circles is about stereographic projection of circles onto circles, and I am using orthographic projection as a tool. In a sense this is "orthographic projection of stereographic projection" Circles to Circles #2 by elkement 2025, […]

  4. another page from this
    when I do ‘translate’ on iphone it says:

    I feel sleepy

    The wall gets sleepy

    The window makes me sleepy

    The iron lid of the manhole

    I feel sleepy

    The plug of the hard pin of truth

    I feel sleepy

    Galaxy's skin

  5. 𝗥𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄: "𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲" 𝗯𝘆 𝗦𝘂𝘀𝗮𝗻 𝗛𝗼𝘄𝗲 -

    Howe's found poetry and auto-historical reflection work to form patterns which, in her own words, form "cthonic echo signals." A collection not to be read so much as intoned.

  7. the bourgeoisie
    hitherto
    converted
    science
    the
    veil and
    relation
    the
    brutal display of
    much
    slothful indolence
    wherever
    patriarchal
    feudal
    has left
    naked
    drowned
    chivalrous
    icy water
    into
    indefeasible
    freedom

    shameless, direct
    stripped of its halo.

    In The Margins. . .CanPo pg49

    new chains
    of rare gems

    they hung
    on saplings
    bright, and
    blaz'd in

    they pil'd
    of cedar
    low did
    the camp

    hounds
    with needles
    dream'd of
    a bat by

    the darkness
    close round

  9. from The Margin

    In
    this before
    this poem
    thinking about

    extended image
    torn asunder and
    of architecture
    where birth is
    more the seizure
    inside
    the blade
    apply Lines from
    light and let
    in the wrestling
    of existing

    and grammar
    collections deftly
    hang
    ceiling of
    Experiment

    That there
    the loss
    of a gale's
    truth
    painful topics
    helped
    no small

    pilgrimages to holy
    contradictory glory

  10. from The Margins

    The sonnet is
    where

    harm from
    tangible sign of
    the many constraints

    that could
    slippage should
    to the fact
    then

    objectification to
    creatureliness

    in separate catagories
    and speak wonders

    neurotic, vain.

    A tree in a park,
    with noises behind
    and the sun shining
    through the branches.

  12. Sangster pg40

    poet in a haze
    dreams away his one
    may almost imbue
    the atmosphere of the night-
    ingales waked in the eastern
    echoes of the wood
    's social solitude

  13. CW: Reference to animal in danger

    seven eels
    wrapped themselves around
    my beloved spaniel

    absolutely shocking

    nice swimming and
    bbq facilities
