Mixed Mode
The experience of leaving one category for another, of smooth being colder than rough and of that December I suffer as the experience of leaving one category for another, using life that way that opens and stops moving, done, furtively waving as with one month that opens and stops among the others, waiting and waking in a place which seems filled with restrained abilities that experience that has never seemed to me to arrive before night except as the need to want to live and want to be dead, using a life that way, face first, name gone, and coming to among a rival's things
